I've had this happen on more than one occasion, that is to say when the motherboard didn't totally bail at the occasion. Anne, if you have a spare PSU, try your system with that one and see if the system is more stable. Brand-name PSU's is *not* a guarantee it will last and/or be resilient. I have experience with those as well... 8-/ >If the latter, I would suspect either a power supply or a processor fan. If >the former, maybe you need to invest in an inexpensive UPS. I second that. A UPS, as in prevention, is THE starting point for stability. At home I have a fairly big one, a Powerware 5115 rated at 1400VA. My two Windows DC's, another Windows intranet web portal, firewall-appliance, linux web server and switch, as well as one monitor are connected to it. The three workstations are not though, all docs and files are on the DC's. 8-}
