In my mind it's more plausible that it might be my OC that has become unstable with this build.
One issue with optimising xbmc, is more work gets done in the same time (i.e. number of jpegs decoded per second, or the number of frames of GUI rendered per second), and that does (usually) consume more power.
That's no problem if your power supply is good, but if it was borderline to begin with, then a more optimised build may expose the limitations.
Last time i checked it was running an average of 4.95 volts during stress tests (full library scan,1080p DTS movies, AC3 Decoding) and PSU is labeled at 2000 mAh, so even if it's not living up to it's full potential it should be sufficient.
Unless it's starting to go bad, it feels like it would not be that. I will however measure it again as soon as i get my hands on a multimeter on Monday.
On another note: Think I might have solved my issue. *crossing my fingers*
Tried removing my OC ( amongst other settings normally running the cpu at 1100 ) and turned it back down to Normal.
Still had locking issues when idling and scrolling thru menus.
Removed the guisettings.xml.
Had no issues since.
