Thats good news Karl.

My problem turned out to be that the DSI needs a powered USB Hub. I have one on its way.

If you cool the camera, the hot pixels will reduce. There are quite a few sites showing simple ways to cool the DSI's with Peltier cooling or just a fan.

Fortunately with DSI's you don't have to open them up to fit Peltier Cooling, because the chip is mounted against the back of the body using the back as a heatsink. Therefore, you only have to grind down a section of the cooling fins and mount the peltier to that flat area.
