o7,
I am experiencing this annyoing capacitor bug on my Alienware m17x with dual GTX 280M.
After a while playing the cap is not showing up correctly, drains, refills ... behaves totally abnormal.
I found this post:
http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=298545
Additionally: the longer I stay afk the higher the chance is to be stucked by a "session change" when trying to jump.
After filing a bug report, getting some advice, sending results from DxDiag, PingPlotter and LogServer I did some more tests.
Finally I come to the suspicion that this is eventually a problem with EVE on computers using combined gfx cards.
I turned off my dual GTX 280M and made a test with the onboard Geforce 9400 chip and the problem will not appear.
CCP is informed about this and I hope they will investigate and try to fix it.
Are there any more users with Alienware m17x dual gfx setup or other computers with SLI technology experiencing the same issue?

I had the problem that you describe and others (like crashs/freezes).
For what I could find it is SLI related.
I had a NVIDIA 9800GX2 (that is, basically, two boards working in SLI) and then changed to a NVIDIA 2600GX and all the problems disappear.

Using Alienware M17x with dual GTX280M and don't have the problem. Didn't have it with Vista64 <spit>, don't have it with Win7 64
Win7 does (or seemed to until last week) have a lot more crashes - seemed to be related to a specific module effect.
The spread spectrum effect that caused the (ancient) issue is not a factor on the chipset in the Alienware M17x.

So any ideas what could be else the reason?

I guess that just CCP can answer this question. I run out of ideas now.
Could this effect finally caused by a 64bit system?

I am running EVE now as usual for over one hour and do not experiencing this bug ... atm.
What I changed in DISPLAY SETUP:
PRESENT INTERVAL: Interval Immediate
Before that it was set to: Interval One.
Still testing and I will update this thread.

After more tests I figured out that the capacitor bug is still present but not that extreme.
It behaves different now. But I did not experience the "session change" problem.
I have no idea what's going on and what's the real reason for this bug what happens just on specific machines.
