At the moment there isn't more error (...and crashes) on DPW600, but i
am using an DPW433 too ....
So the next week I will call the service.

the problem for the excessive page-in was generated from a new
application (a math model ... ops..sorry!!)
that had reduced the free list at 50..90 pages!
(I hope that this is solution...)

Thanking you ,
