The Russian Computers are Crashing

After the installation of the new solar panels on the ISS, the Russians computer lost their mind (forgive the technical software terms ;-). Astronauts and Cosmonauts are attempting a reboot. If they can't fix it NASA says it may abandon the ISS.

These are the systems that control thrusters are also used to control the oxygen-production and carbon-dioxide scrubbing.

NASA seems optimistic that they can fix the problem.
