A couple of weeks ago I posted a peculiar problem I'm having with a machine that's been upgraded from 6.2 to 7.3, where under 6.2 the thing would run for months without a problem, and now under 7.3 I have yet to even see one week of uptime. It randomly freezes up, no error messages, nothing in the logs, no system load, nothing. I would find the console frozen solid, I can't reach the machine remotely, it's just dead.


At the time several of you suggested I run memtest86 on it. All fine and dandy...however, I have done that and the test came back empty. As in no errors. I have Cache, ECC both turned on for testing, and I've selected All tests, Extended (which took a lovely 3+ hours on the 768M). It came back clean.

I already have my vendor looking into a replacement motherboard for this box since that's the next thing I can think off to tackle. Can anyone else give me any other reasons and or suggestions as to why this machine keeps locking up the way it is?

W | I haven't lost my mind; it's backed up on tape somewhere.
