I had a problem with one of the two processors on a DS20 box
disappearing....

Martin Moore replied and said he recalled a problem like that
occuring if the DS20 was power cycled quickly - ie a couple of
seconds. I *think* this may have happened to both of my failing
machines. I had some problems with hanging device drivers during
boot up and may have pressed the power button instead of the
reset as they are rather close together.

In any case, I shut down both boxes, turned off the power and
left it off for a minute or so, powered on, and the processors
are back online now.

Thanks to all who replied.
