Thanx Kev, that makes me feel really good :P. And if by server room you 
mean the computer that sites 2 feet from where I work, then yeah the 
server room is a mess :). We are a small(6 people) company so we don't 
have all those fancy dancy la dee da server rooms. Now the question I 
asked was, could this problem be causeing my kernel panic? OH and what was 
broke in RH8?

Hey guys

I went into the server last night with the intention of switching the
socket that the ram was in, just to see if that might help, and then rum
memtest86 on it. To my suprise when I touched the mb, it swing back a 
bit.
It seems the pegs that hold the mb off of the case wall had sheared thru
and the mb was only really hanging from the very last top corner peg.
Could this have caused some of the problems I seem to have been facing? 
I
figure that if the mb had touched the side of the case it could have
killed/messed up/crashed the system. What do you guys think? Oh and I 
left
memtest86 to run over night and it seems to have died sometime in the
night leaving just a blue screen with a red strip across the top, weird.
