You see you, don't be surprised if it is hardware related.



cheers


but thats the weird thing.. they had it running with win xp pro for 48 hours and did a bunch of tests (play CDs, etc)

and it ran 100%

so if there was a hardware problem
like bad RAM or bad MOBO
you'd think it would have shown up

this is why i'm confused
