I recently did a post about X quiting out with a sig11 a lot. Its usually about once or twice a week but the other day it did it like 3 times in a row. The only responce I got was that it could be bad ram. So I ran memtest on the machine. Nothin, I have registered ECC ram (required for my board) I've pulled the sound card, no effect. I havent had a spontaneous reboot since I got the new video card. Which gives me the same effect weather I use the comercial nvidia drivers or the open source nv drivers. I dont seem to have the same problem in windows, but I run windows about as much as I run in the street. The only thing I've come up with is that its either the power supply, or I need to get some sort of line conditioner for the plug its pluged into. I have a beautiful surge protector, but I guess that wouldnt stop drops in the power level. Thanks for all your help. -Matt
