 I had a tail -f going on my syslog, and I noticed an entry which said:
 
 kernel:  i8253 too high!  Resetting
 
 (not 100% sure of the number, but it was close to that)
 
 That was the final entry on the screen.  Everything else had stopped.  Even 
 my main console wouldn't respond when I moved the mouse and I had to hit 
 the reset button to reboot.
 
 Anyone know what this message means?  And maybe what can be done to keep it 
 from showing up again?

Is this a laptop?  i82365 is a pcmcia chipset is why I'm asking.

Nope.  It's a Gigabyte motherboard inside a tower case.
