Some VIA chipsets have problems if both USB hubs are enabled. This is what happened to my brother -- he had his Windows hanging every now and then until I told him to disable one of the USB hubs, which took care of the problem. Your problem may not be related to USB however, but if you're not using USB anyways, it's safer to turn them off. It'll release some resources for other processes. > On the machine that is working, I have the same GPU, but the integrated > ethernet unit is a VIA rhine instead of a realtek. > Right now I feel like a big questionmark... :-( If you have APIC/IO-APIC enabled on the kernel, remove it. Either boot with noapic or remove APIC support entirely from the kernel. APIC causes some problems with at least on some VIA and SiS chipsets on uniprocessor systems (and some AMD multiprocessor systems). To determine if it might be APIC-related problem. Type dmesg on the command promt and see if there's a "spurious interrupt" message anywhere. It won't appear allways, but if it does, it's an APIC problem. Hardware problems are hard to determine if there's no indication on what might cause the problem. To be on the safer side, you could start off by installing the latest 2.4 kernel, and hope it's a driver issue.
