<p>I used to have an HP computer. It would lock up at random when
it was running linux. I found out later that there was a bug in
the bios it was using that only affected linux, and HP wasn't
interested, at that time in fixing the bug. Others might have
better luck coming up with a solution if you can tell the list
what hardware is in this computer of yours.<br>
