Hey Mark, I had an old Q 950 that would freeze up if I ran it with the cover off. I am sure it was a heating problem. Freeze ups took about a half hour to develoup and would disappear neatly almost immediately once it got some cooling from proper hardware handling. Although I'm not familiar with the 7100 particularly, my guess is you're very possibly barking up the right tree. Don -- 1st-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
