Tim,<br><br>I sorry for the scan details.<br><br>First off, the problem is random and I have not checked to see if I can telnet into the box.<br>I have run memtest86 for 24 hours straight without any issues.<br><br>On time that does not seem to be random is when the system has had some amount of time with no activity.<br>
<br>The system is is a 4 year old desktop with 1 gb of memory and 160gb of disk space.<br>This is my test machine so, I have done fresh installs on this system with the same behavior.<br>When it locks up I am am forced to do a hard re-boot using the front panel buttons.<br>
<br>As for apps that I use, currently I am mostly using firefox. I have had it freeze when doing a system update, using the update manager tool.<br><br>Hope this helps because I am getting frustrated with this system.<br>

Based on these scant details probably not. Can you be more specific? For<br>
example:<br>
<br>
* At what point does it freeze? during boot up? after you login?<br>
after you start a particular app?<br>
* Is the system running X?<br>
* Is it a laptop? desktop? blade?<br>
* Does it hum merrily along for a while then randomly freeze? or<br>
does it consistently freeze at the same point?<br>
* After it freezes can you access it by other means? ssh? ping?<br>
* Are you forced to do a hard boot? or ctrl-alt-del?<br>
