Subject: my crashing box
I am having a really hard time troubleshooting why my box will randomly
freeze. I am running a SuSE 6.4 box w/ 192 MB RAM, a Diamond Speedstar A55
8MB AGP video card, a Voodoo2 card, an Ensoniq ES1371 sound card(?), a
D-Link(tulip) NIC, and I can't remember the name of the motherboard with an
AMD K-3 333 chip. On occasion, for reasons I can't figure out, my system
will all of a sudden completely lock up. The user input devices will not
respond at all, and I have to do a hard reboot. It seems to be doing this
with increased frequency lately; I used to think it was a software
problem(something to do with the drivers for my sound card) but I'm now
starting to suspect maybe it really is a hardware problem. Any guesses
and/or recommendations would be greatly appreciated in figuring out what's
causing this to crash.

Thanks
