When launching video in VideoViewer or Alarm Monitoring, the client workstation loses connection to the network for no reason after launching one or more live video windows.
Closing these windows restores the network connectivity until another video window is opened.

Resolution
On the client workstation, upgrade the Intel driver version to 10.3.39.250 (dated 7/25/2008) or later. Newer versions of this driver can be downloaded for free from Intel's Web site.
After updating the version of the driver, launching video in OnGuard will not cause the network connectivity to suddenly fail.
