20 minutes is an estimate, sometimes it takes longer to happen. Usually if I go out for lunch it has frozen by the time I get back. It also seems to be happening more often now than it did when I first upgraded. I'm in a room with 6 other (Windows) PCs and as far as I know they haven't had any power spike problems. I also don't have any problems with my Lucid laptop when it's plugged in here. > This may sound obvious but make sure your system > has all updates applied.
