The odd thing is if it is live long enough to open an app when I re-start it the app is still open ...

I have an Ax X5 Advanced with a Mugen power 3800 battery and I always keep the the SD & CF cards in it.
Hey, Alastair, me too! I've just started having the same problem, exactly. I have the same setup, too, except I swap out sd cards often and use gps or wifi as well as a memory card in the cf slot. Still, there's always something in the slot. Hmmmm.

I soft reset at least every day (after my daily backup), so it isn't that. I'm going to dust off and try the standard Dell battery tonight to see if it has anything to do with the Mugen battery.
