form the rest of the stuff below ... your disk system is corrupted 

- if your system boots properly .. and x11 looks oky fro a while ...
  i'd bet the cpu is still okay...

- if you, or anybody, has to hit the reset or power switch at least once,
  i say the machine is misconfigured ... or something is seriously wrong
  with the existing hardware  ( i'm finicky about things working right
  esp if means losing data if "something" is known to be wrong/flaky )
        - reset and power switch should be hands off

- if you have a heat problem
        - take the covers off
        - put a standard $20 household fan on it and blow the [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
out of
        it ... skip all those mickey mouse 40mm/80mm/120mm fans

- the bios should should down the cpu in its "health monitor" section
  if it has the capability .. otherwise, put an egg on it and have
  breakfast sometimes ..
