Memory and thermals seem fine. (That was while running cpuburn was it?) The next favourite cause that springs to my mind is the good old IRQ conflict. Take a look at KDE Control Centre>Information>Interrupts IRQ lines shared between video and ethernet are a favourite for causing random lockups. Reassigning IRQs depends on your BIOS in some BIOS' you can specifically assign IRQ. With others you have to move cards. With some of the really bad BIOS' you have to go around disabling unused on board devices. It might also be worth adding the 'nopentium' option to the append line of your Lilo config (It hides a bug in the Athlon to do with memory page swapping. I thought it was fixed in later Athlons, but you never know) derek -- ---------------------------------- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
