I agree that it is probably not the ps, but I thought I'd ask what size
it was because I had a 300W on my system and it work fine----for
awhile. Then I did a reboot after it being on for 3-4 days and it never
came back. However, I moved the very same supply to my sons P3 system
and it works fine. My system is only a single Athlon XP 1800.
Don't forget the memtest program for checking memory. It definately
helped me find a marginal memory stick. I know Suse has it on their
distro and I believe it is also on the bootable credit card cd distro as
well as others.
