Hello,
I bought the system in october, so quite cheap from ebay, it's one of
those home built machines, so think cheapest parts possible! :)
it's a core2quad with 2 gigs of ram, nvidia 8800gt. The symptoms have
changed since it first started. before it used to freeze, no mouse
moving, no keyboard, sysrq doesnt work, but display showing last app
running on X, and nothing in the logs,then I noticed that if I have some
apps open when the crash happens (e.g. mythtv) i do get something in the
logs, see attached file with different data from different days, logs
dont always get written to, these messages keep repeating in the logs.
I don't know if any1 can make anything of those things. but the freezes
are completely random! they happen while i am working on the machine, or
if i come back after leaving it for a few hours, no matter what apps are
running. seriously frustrating.
I had checked the temperatures at some point, dont remember what it was,
but after googling i found it's normal for a stock fan (somewhere in the
50s), no dust on the fans, all hardware well attached.
getting a new video card tomorrow, as the fan on the one i have is quite
noisy, and that throws one of the suspects away!
any helps would be appreciated.
thanks,
Seif A.
