hmmm... but would this tax a 633mhz cel w/512mb ram to where it would
reboot? the CPU is running normal... no overclocking involved.
Yes. If your processor is improperly cooled, or your processor, RAM, or
motherboard components are buggy, it will cause a crash every single time.
It's very common to have buggy hardware that only "seems" to crash under
a certain program. The keygen process is very math-intensive, it may
overwork math parts of the processor that normally don't get worked out,
and those may be the only parts of the processor that are buggy.
I would recommend installing memtest and cpuburn from the ports and see
if running those applications according to their instructions leads you
to any more conclusions.
