Re: system lock up

Try running your system with Knoppix or with WinXP (via a separate hard drive) and do a systematic elimination of faulty hardware which may be a as simple as mouse/keyboard/external HDD . Since the problem has a random repeatable nature it may be time consuming. Therefore least expensive options may be tried first. First I will check memtest as much as can be afforded / tolerated but not more than overnight. Second I will double check external HDD then mouse/keyboard. After that (it can be a week) try other expensive items. It can be as complex as CPU/mobo if ur solution is not simple.
I hope U post the solution in detail when U arrive at by any means.
Wish U Good luck.

Hmm, and mine does so well with its 90 Watt supply whereas their list
suggests I need around 210 Watts...  I find the power needs of some
computer parts to be a bit over-the-top, likewise with the amount of
heat some things generate and don't adequately dissipate.  Design
doesn't appear to be too fantastic in a lot of cases (whoever decided
that PCI cards should be upside down with the hottest parts underneath
ought to be flogged).

It really would help if manufacturers put their power requirements on
their parts.
