Re:<< What is your mb and how old is it? >>

Asus A7M266, just got it (and everything else in my system) last July.

PS is a Sparkle 350W, and the RAM is 256MB of Samsung, both of which have been working fine until recently (assuming one/both are the cause of the problem). Can RAM just fail like that, after being OK for months? Is there a prog out there that can test RAM for defects? (until I can try a replacement from a friend tomorrow)?

Oh one more thing (and a reason that might support the bad ram/PS idea): occasionally the DFT program itself would just freeze (not while running the tests – just while in the main screen). I thought the DFT ran off of a RAMdrive – wouldnt that mean that either the program was written badly (??) or that something is wrong with the RAM?

Re:Bad ram, bad. Spank that ram for giving you so much trouble and put in another stick and see if your troubles dissapear. I just had a fresh install not work right because of ram.

Run a hdd diagnostic supplied by the hd manufacturer to be safe.

What is your mb and how old is it?

PS problem? There is always that chance too.

Re:My 60GXP would somehow get "disconnected" (hmm internal HD got disconnected, interesting …) at random and would cause Win2k to crash. At times it wouldn't even get recognised at boot time. After a while it decided to identify itself as an unformatted disc. I had to use a 3rd party utility to get my stuff off it. Guess what the result code of IBM's diagnostic utility was … 0×00.

Still waiting for a replacement. My money is on the IBM HD being crappy just like the rest of them.
