Broken cameras...Anyone?

Hey, we've been working on our code to track the targets for a while, and, when we are able to actually grab a picture off the camera and use it, our calculations work. Our problem is that the camera is continually rebooting in the middle of use.When that happens, the code stops talking to it and we can't get any more pictures until we restart the robot. We have been doing everything we can to make this stop happening, but we think the problem may be inside the camera. Earlier today our team had a driving practice, and I'm told that the camera rebooted in the middle and the entire robot froze up. It shut down to the point where we were unable to re-upload code , so now we think that we may have to reimage the cRio.

Is anyone else having trouble with the camera itself, not with the image processing? If so, please help!
