I have narrowed it down it seems ( I'm still waiting for a crash) but as of right now my uptime is at 20:46 but I did set the memory at 64meg, it had been there but in a grayed out box, so I selected it. also I have the monitor power savings off and the screensavers off. I'm just turning the monitor off when leaving the computer. Also I turned off the 3d acceleration that may have been the biggest problem. It allowed me to finish my work yesterday. I would like to have it enabled. but if that turns out to be the problem I'll post back and let the group know.
