Hi Cameron,

The case has a 300w PSU. I am leaning towatd it being a problem with the HD.

George,

In the past, I've had problems with machines (esp those with Athlons) that
were resolved by getting a new power supply.
I was getting big disk errors, random crashing and
motherboard-not-powering-up problems.

Did the new case that you bought have an PSU rated for an Athlon ?

Regards,
Cammy.

This is slightly OT I know so fogive me. I have a machine which was
running win2K, and I had a a problem with it so I upgraded the machine a
bit, new case, graphics card and memory and reinstalled win2k, after
the  reinstall it kept hanging. Then when I tried to reboot it came up
with  an error message saying a file could not be found, and it
caouldn't  start windows, so I reinstalled it again and it ran OK for a
few days  and then the same message different file. I have swapped  the
card and  removed the extra memory but the same problems.

Anyway to the linux part. I put MD9 on it and it won't power down, the
modem won't work everytime you reboot unless you go to the configuration
panel and redo the config, and generally it's running like a wounded
rhino, the machine itself is a 1gig athlon with 1024 of ram.
