UCCNC shuts down unexpectedly

[Kitwn]

Unfortunately I had the same problem show up again yesterday. However, a look at the bug reports on the cncdrive forum included someone who got exactly the same shutdown problems when he unplugged his Xbox controller USB plug. I tried the same trick with my game controller and got all the same symptoms including the ntdll.dll report on Event Viewer. I definitely owe Andy tea and HobNobs next time he's in Tasmania for showing me that. Interestingly I can plug the controller into a different USB socket on the other side of the laptop and UCCNC doesn't have any problems if I take the plug in and out repeatedly. The Device Manager does list more than one USB port controller in the machine which is why I thought this trick was worth testing.

I'm assuming the problem is with the one USB port dropping out for some reason and have my fingers crossed for no more sudden closures from here on.
