ELPH 100 HS Shutting down

I am quite a noob when it comes to CHDK, considering that I had it installed two days ago!

But now that i have it installed and I am trying to run a simple intravalometer script on it. It runs for some time but then for some reason the camera shuts down. I have Canon ELPH 100 HS firmware version 101c and I am running chdk version 101b because I was told that this will work fine. Please help.

The 1.01b firmware is the right choice for your 1.01c camera.

Did you disable the built-in power saving auto-power down in the Canon setup menus ?

I tried to point out the most likely problem. If that's not it, post what you found and we will try something else.

SO far so good. I tried it again with your suggestion and it worked. I could take a nice time-lapse of the evening. So I think the problem is solved. Thanks a ton for your help!!
