Dear Friends ,
I have Asus A7n8x-deluxe , 2500 + athlon and Asus FX 5600 vga card. I installed Mandrake 9.2 and I also installed latest original mainboard and vga drivers from Nvidia's site. Everything ( even 3com lan adapter ) works fine. I see no fail message during boot -up. I also installed some styles( aqua ) from www.kde-look.org and normally there seems no any error. But my system crashes randomly ( stops responding , no mouse and no keyboard !! ) . I experienced this while I was scrolling with mouse ( mouse stopped suddenly ) . This happened twice in 3 hours. When I was using Win XP I had the same problem ( The system crashed randomly in 3 hours or sometimes did not crash at all several days. I mean This happened randomly . But after installing latest XP drivers for mobo and VGA I did not experience any crash since 7 days of hardwork on XP. It seems It is OK on XP , but how about on Mandrake 9.2 ??. My rams are Kingston. My power supply unit is 400 W Zalman. Is there any possibility of hardware failure if so how can I understand ?? And if the reason is somehow Mandrake 9.2 ; I heard always that linux is much more stable , so what is this ????? And what can I do if such crash happens on Mandrake ? should I wait ? or should I reset the computer ?? since keyboard and mouse does not respond. Thanks.. Hertas.
