I completed my 9.2 iso downloads, installed, and tried out the tmb kernel, but I'm still getting the seemingly random hard lockups. I did an install from the disks, added Club, Contrib and plf sources, added the tmb kernel+source and rebooted. Sometimes it will happen after a few minutes, sometimes after a few hours, and it doesn't seem to depend on system load. I don't think it's a hardware issue, as Win2k will run for days on end without a problem, both sitting idle, downloading, working, or playing games. So I'm not sure where to look next for a fix. Any suggestions? Thanks for all of your help, Hez
