If time matches and no UPS I'd highly suspect a micro power faillure, that other machines could over go, but that this specific machine could not handle. It could be enough that a capacitor in the power supply of the machine is drying out and the micro cut could not be filtered as well as it used to be. I'd not expect laptopn of TV to be affected by such micro shortage. Olivier
