Hi,

I'm asking here because I'm very desperated with a bug (?) I've found
with my Stylistic ST5021:

Very often, the DVD drive is not found when the Tablet is in the
TabletDock. More worse, the tablet hangs on start (BIOS screen).
Sometimes rotating the tablet helps but most of the time, rotating it
and/or restarting a few times with CTRL+ALT+DEL has no effect. The one
thing I can do is to remove the tablet a few times from the dock and try
again until it works.

When inserting the Tablet into the Dock from standy or as running device,
sometimes the DVD-drive is not found too :-( There is no icon in "My
Computer" and there is no green drive-icon in the system tray.

At the beginning (3 years ago), everything worked fine but sometime the
problems described above occured. At the beginning, they occured
infrequently and after some tame almost everytime :-(
I was desperated and sent it in for warranty. I got a new TabletDock and
everything worked fine the first time. But after some time all the things
described above repeated.

Last month, almost 3 years later the problem occured so frequently again
that I sent the device in again for warranty. This time they exchanged
the whole motherboard of my Stylistic. But the problem did not resolve,
it's the same again now: Right now, for example, I had to re-insert the
tablet three times (!) into the dock, otherwise, the Tablet hung on boot.
Now, Windows has started up successfully but I'm working without a DVD-
drive; it's simply not detected!

I'm very desperated and because they have changed both the TabletDock and
the Tablet (its mainboard) I'm sure that this is a bug in the Stylistic
series. Now I'm, hoping that anybody here has a Stylistic too and can
confirm/disconfirm the problems I described. Please also write down the
exact device number (e.g. ST5021D).

More better, if anybody has an idea how to solve the problem it would be
very, very great!

Thank you and Best regards,
Peter
