  I assume you are using Julian's beta 3 driver for your bt742a.  If
that true, I've got a exactly same problem on my bt742a last October.

But I am almost done fixing this problem and have a enhanced Julian's
driver. So If you could join me for stress testing this driver, please
let me know. (At least in my system both pathch 0.1 and 0.2, it's is
very stable right now ;-)
