I know this is probably a stupid answer, but ... Have you upgraded
the firmware on the card? We have a number of ICP cards and with the
2.39 firmware we can easily lockup the box with the behavior you
explain with a simple buildworld. Upgrading the firmware to 2.44
solves the problem completely for us.
