Some help please.

I�m having persistant, regular trouble with random crashes followed by dialog boxes 
indicating type 13 errors [not -13]. 

I have a Beige MT 300 upgraded early last summer with a Formac copper G3 set at 466 
mghz, 384mg of ram, system 9.1 recently upgraded [clean install] to OS 9.2.1.

I get sudden crashes of all different types of applications where the application 
suddenly disappears back to the Finder and is replaced by a window indicating a type 
13 error. Other times my Finder suddenly quits and I am asked to restart. Sometimes 
the computer just freezes.

This condition began with regular frequency several weeks ago. I did a clean install 
of OS 9.1 and upgraded to 9.2.1 and the problem followed along to the new system.
 
I have tried many things.

I eliminated all third party extensions and control panels. I rebuilt the desktop at 
startup and by using DiskWarrior after starting up from the CD ROM [DiskWarrior run 
from the CD ROM has crashed with a 13 error]. I zapped the pram. I reduced the 
adjustable processor speed of the Formac ZIF by setting it to 400 mghz and pushed the 
Cuda [reset] button to the left of the PCI slots. I tested for bad ram by pulling each 
chip, one chip at a time and restarting. I installed a new pram battery.

The crashes and type 13 errors continued after each test or remedy.  I suspect a 
hardware issue but am baffled as to where to look next. 

Looking type 13 errors up on the internet I find that it is an uninstalled interrupt. 
Too vague for me to understand.

Has anyone had experience with type 13 errors and �uninstalled interrupts�?
Any suggestions of where I should look or what is going on?

Thanks,

Greg Rickert
