Hi, I have an Ultra 10 in my office that experiences hard hangs
periodically while using sound+graphics intensive applications (xmms,
shockwave flash, etc.). It hangs hard enough to require power-cycle:
STOP-A and the "soft" power button don't work. I've likely eliminated
bad RAM as a suspect, so it's down to CPU, motherboard, or graphics
card. I suspect it's the graphics card, though.
Could you please drop off a new Creator 3D card so I can troubleshoot
further? Relevant details:
hostname: saint-elmos-fire.mit.edu
model: Ultra 10 / 300MHz / Creator 3D
location: w92-145
