It gives me much easier control and never crashed whilst I find that PHD will freeze regularly

PHD has always been stable with my (original) Orion Deep Space Star Shooter although when I have CCDSoft running for my SBIG ST7 as well as The Sky 6 Pro for controlling the mount, PHD appears to take quite some time to respond to e.g. simply dragging the PHD Window, or, stopping the auto guiding.
That’s on a 6 year old IBM ThinkPad R40 with Centrino 1.4G CPU and 512MB RAM.

PS – I know I should never write that PHD has always been stable. This rash act will undoubtedly cause it to crash the next time I use it!!!!
