Plus, does lm_sesnros support your board?
Run (as root) $ sensors-detect [8], let it try to find you i2c chipset
and configure it - it should give you CPU/Chipset temperature/fan
speed/voltage/etc.
More-ever, configure smartd [8] to monitor the hard disk health and use
smartctl [8] to check the current status. (Usually smartctl -a <device>)

[8] means man 8 XXX.

Thanks for the help. I tried memory check but nothing is wrong with
it. By the way this FC5 box is on Duron chip and guess the motherboard
is also quite old. "sensor-detect" detects mostly the NVIDIA things
only, not a thing about CPU/Chipset temp/fan speed. I guess its not
supported.

I guess something is wrong with my cable. I changed the cable and now
its fine again. I used to leave this machine unattended for minimum of
3 days straight and its running without complain. I don't know if its
going to show same thing again. Post it later if porblem occurs.

Thanks again!

Glad to hear it worked out for you. I seriously hate intermittent hardware faults, they're the bane of our existence.
