Miro DC-20 Based Video Capture: System Hangs when capturing.

I seem to be getting random lockups during video capture and this seems
to happen regardless of whether I capture to EIDE or SCSI-2. The system
is running under Windows for WorkGroups 3.11, I am not  exceeding 
my data ratem and I have a new installation of Windows with  just 
the  sound  software and teh miro drivers installed,  along  with 
Premiere LE.

CPU:     P166
Board:   Endeavour Socket 7
RAM:     32 MB EDO
Cache:   256K COAST
VGA:     Matrox Millenium PCI 2MB        IRQ 11
SCSI:    Adaptec AHA2940 PCI             IRQ 10
Network: Digital Turbo 3                 IRQ 15, IO=280, ROM D000-D700
Sound:   Built in Vibra16                IRQ 5, DMA 1,5, IO 330, 220,300
Mouse:   Serial Microsoft
Disk C/E Western Digital 2.5GB EIDE Caviar
Disk D   Segate 2GB Barracuda (Narrow)

Capture  file set to D or E, same problem of lock-ups. These  can  
occur  in  20 secs or after 600 secs of recording. I  have  tried 
switching   off  auto  disconnect  driver  from  preferences   in 
Premiere. 

I  thought  that  might have solved it but  it  didn't.   Problem 
occurred with Premiere and Premiere LE 

Has  anyone  else  experienced  this?  It  makes  long  sequences 
impossible to record. Note the Barracuda is apposed to be  usable 
in  this  capacity, and the Western Digital  does  not  thermally 
recalibrate ......
