I recently went through some mysterious crashes with my supersport. 
It was either:  

A) the use of the extended 1M of memory by a MSW 2.03 Caching program,
B) the falling out or the right rear bottom screw. 

From my experience, it certainly seemed like a heat-related memory
problem. Hypothesis: either the use of the second M heated up the
machine, or the screw actually helps ventilation or heatsinking.

By the time I brought it into my H/Z dealer, I had removed the TSR and
found the missing screw. They could not find any problem nor has it
repeated, nor was there a case history.

I have not bothered to isolate the fault any further.
