Of the top of my head, I can think of the following reasons: Plugs and sockets (including plug in cards, ICs, cabling, etc.) may not be well seated. Changes in temperature could change their seating. Unplug and replug everything. There's temperature sensitive faulty components. They ought to be replaced, if you could identify them. They'll only get worse. Faulty power supply that's not re-starting properly (that's assuming that it stops for a moment when you do a reboot, mine appears to). Hardware isn't properly resetting after a reboot, and is coming up in an undefined state. This could be because a reset isn't being properly sent through the motherboard. -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
