I've been having trouble with my Lombard 400 (OS 9.2.2).
It's been freezing hard while running Netscape 7.02 or the Wacomm Mozzilla build. Each freeze requires a forced restart and they got frequent enough (every other day) to require action.
So I rebuilt the desktop, zapped the PRAM and trashed most all the preferences but the problem still occurs.
Could it be that Netscape and Mozzilla are fighting? At first I though it was cool that when I started Mozz the Netscape profiles popped right up but perhaps there's some sort of conflict running both programs on the same machine.
Maybe it's just time to re-install the OS. It has been a few years and my daughter has used the machine pretty hard.
If I stick with OS9 is there any preference for revision level?
I don't think it's hardware since I was able to play through a whole movie on DVD without incident.

PS: Afterward I opened the keyboard and checked the top of the processor heat sink. It was hot but not too hot to hold my palm against.
