Thanks guys. Feeling stupid but relieved.

Is it a subframe box or something else??? (Just don't want to make the same mistake myself)

Yes, it was the subframe box. MaxIm must remember the settings between sessions. I have a "Focus" preset at 2s exposures, but had modified it to 10s because was shooting narrowband. It puts an asterisk next to the preset name so you know it's been modified but not saved. If you use a subframe it also puts an asterisk. I saw it, but thought it was there because of the exposure time change, not subframe change. If I'd just have used another preset, it would have reverted back to the full frame and I wouldn't have displayed my stupidity to the world.
