My 1.5 gHz P4 256MB RAM machine keeps locking up- no response from the keyboard or mouse, and the screen does not change (even the spinning circles that show something is loading do not move). The red disk light is not on. It does not repsond to CTRL-ALT-DEL. It's locked up now, what can I check? I'm writing this on the wife's XP box. The only way to get it back is to hit the rest button on the front of the box. After that, should I boot into runlevel 3 and check the logs? Should I mail the logs to the list? I don't really know what to look for. The hard disk and power supply have been replaced, and it did this on Kubuntu and Fedora. It's becoming much more frequent now. Nothing is overly hot in the case. Thanks. Dotan Cohen http://what-is-what.com
