Well, had some lockups here too, most caused by: |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
1) Heat, that's a known problem. |
| 4 |
2) Memory, guessing what stick is dying makes me ill. |
| 5 |
3) MoBo, that Soyo mobo and its inflating capacitors. |

I came to the conclusion that a PC must have special treatment in |
| 8 |
order to keep up night and day (wich is my case), so, a good |
| 9 |
environment and sane settings are welcome. Good fans, maybe a water |
| 10 |
cooler for heat control, strict control over static eletricity and |
| 11 |
dust (yeah, hate it), and not playing around with flags for "super |
| 12 |
duper velocity" that may hang the system. |

Anyway, I would check all the stuff the other people mentioned, and |
| 15 |
also check my video card for any problem (once it turned out to be a |
| 16 |
memory problem AT THE VIDEO CARD). Good luck. |
