Here is as much information as I can give now but I'll run anything (including the possibility of allowing a remote connect) to diagnose this problem as I think it is serious and has the potential to ruining machines as I'm frequently having to hard shut down which of course runs the possibility of damaging a hard drive. Problem: Hard freeze very often (I've had as many as 5 in an hour). Hard freeze definition from me: 1. Mouse stops moving 2. Keyboard actions have no response (including alt+cntrl+f1) 3. Hard drive spins for a shor time but then stops 4. Only way to fix is hard shut down What's been done: 1. Checked logs (willing to provide any but I couldn't see any problem) 2. Tried finding out if software is triggering it, seems to be random, could be wrong Again I think that this is a major problem so I'll do whatever it takes to provide information.
