    Hi,

    I've got a PIX 515 that has recently started reloading itself for
    apparently no reason. At time it was running 6.3(3) and I have since
    upgraded it to 6.3(4). It is operating standalone. I had the console
    connected while it reloaded and there was absolutely no error
    messages of any description. The only odd thing that I notice about
    the box is that there is a red light coming from what appears to be
    an LED labelled "CR1" located on the main board. next to the battery.
    I do not recall that it was like that before... but can't be sure.

    Following is the "show ver" from the PIX.. could someone help and
    provide some hints as to why the box might be reloading by itself?
    btw, the fan is operating normally.

    many thanks,
    Lei
