Joseph,
Sorry- I haven't been reading this thread from the beginning, so I might have
missed some of your first posts.
If we eliminate heat as the problem (not saying we absolutely have), I'm
starting to think it could be a misconfigured kernel, or kernel bug itself.
What kernel are you you currently using? It might be worth a try compiling a
new one, making sure all config options are correct for your system.
One question (maybe you answered this before):
Have you booted to a live cd like Knoppix or Slax, and the same problem
occurs? If it does still happen, that would eliminate your kernel and/or
hard drive as the source of the problem, and again focus back on the heat
issue.
If it doesn't happen, after being booted to a live cd for several hours of
heavy usage, that would eliminate the heat issue.

Excellent idea, but I'd suggest Kanotix 64 instead of Knoppix or Slax.
Unless there are 64-bit versions of those that I don't know about.
