Your assumption is correct.  This error has nothing to do with your change.

I don't have time to spend tracking down the error (I would use a binomial 
search to find when things stopped working).  I will gladly test any patches 
(or reverse commits) if someone comes up with a suggestion.  

Also, of note, even though Windows 7 runs fine on the computer I cannot rule 
out some sort of hardware failure.  

Thanks for fixing the MCP51 issue.
