That was my first thought, so I removed all the "dead" drives
manually (also the invisible ones).

In fact, the farm dumps its results on the same network drive where
the work data is.. yet I tested it with the farm switch removed
physically from the network, to be sure nothing interferes.. it
happenes even when it's a solo workstation - server connection.

Maybe it might be better on the long run to migrate to a "standard"
dialogue.. applications like Eyeon Fusion seem to use the standard
dialogue spiced up with some enhancement of their's, and it works
well.
