Steve, I have used GNS3 for a very long time. If you want we can meet up for a web meeting and I can show you my setup and what yours should look like. There are some gotchas and things to improve performance. I can run about 9 7200 routers very easily. I have a Core i7 with 4GB of RAM.
It sounds like your CPU is pegging out which drops the neighbors. I saw this a very long time ago when I either didn't have things setup right or my Laptop just wasn't powerful enough to do what I wanted to do. Let me know.

It’s getting to the point I’m ready to scrap GNS3 as a viable learning platform, it just has too many issues IMHO. I’m getting tired of my OSPF neighbors disappearing and then not being able to connect and having to stop/start the routers in GNS, over and over again. Has anyone else experienced this or possibly have a solution to this issue? Thanks!
