good points. OS is XP Pro with maximum updates. It is a slow machine (500MHz with 512 MB) but the only thing it does is run gadgets and memory use seems not to be an issue. Further observation is that storyboarding seems to make the problem occur more but doesn't eliminate the issue when it is off. It seems to be more directly related to refreshing the data. One other important note is that the SQL server it is pulling data from is accessed VIA VPN. Generally speaking we don't have any performance issues to speak of when pulling data from the SQL server.

We have consistently seen the gadgets blowing up when the data value changes and storyboarding is running. Has anyone else seen that problem? Currently we have just stopped using storyboarding. Our dashboard runs about seven gadgets so I haven't narrowed it down for sure but I am pretty sure that at least the digital out-gauge has the issue. Thoughts?
