I had a similar problem, I did a fresh re install of Repetier and it solved it.

I had this problem happening to me when I first enclosed my solidoodle. I forgot to refresh the electric board.

When the steppers get hot, they tend to go crazy, and loose steps easily.

Try to cool your board, you can just zip tie a fan on your board and try it.

Your first problem is caused by the stepper motors losing steps, there are plenty of articles about this covered in detail and how to remedy the issue... just do a search for 'missing steps' or 'stepper skipping' and you should find some posts to get sorted as to the cause and how to identify what the actual problem is.

your second post is probably a configuration issue in RH, the bed size numbers are probably for a SD2 instead of an SD3

Also I printed a square for calibration and it seems it is not centered with the repetier. The repetier shows the model centered but my printer prints not in the center

My printer was printing perfectly. But from some point on, it prints all over the place. I dont know what is going on. Can someone help?. It seems that the printer dosent print all the layer in the same place, it prints one layer one place, and then another one on top of that one.

HELP!
