Sounds like hardware. Probably getting hot. Check all your fans, blow out all
the dust. Install lm_sensors and gkrellm - monitor your temperatures. Run a
program like memtest86 or the torture test on mprime. Watch your temp via
gkrellm while it runs - see if the temp goes way up and it locks up.
Memtest86 will check your memory in case something is bad there.
HTHs!
