I had a similar problem to this..I ran aida and found the vid card was 
only showing 1mb memory at times instead of 64mb...I bought a s/h vid 
card and the problem is cured...Funny part about it is the computer 
would work perfectly under Libranet,partially in Fedora and BLAG but any 
other distro caused it to freeze.....I did find that linux was still 
running as streamtuner continued to work but I got no input from k/board
or mouse..
