 This number alone doesn't really tell anything.
 There should be an extra line in the log / on the console,
 which contains two more 64bit numbers. Putting these into
 http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/cruft/parsemce.c will decode
 them and give you more idea hopefully over whats wrong.
 (I really should make that tool a little friendlier ..
  I'll do it soon)
