Thank you Frans.

That's interesting. I have a USB web cam connected, but don't use it. It 
happens when using my Blue Yeti mic when recording podcasts. I've 
disconnected the Logitech and will see if it continues. I've also 
connected the Blue to a USB 3.0 port to see if that makes a difference.

Thanks again.

Jack
