update:
last night I restored all the settings in the bios to default (no overclock)...
ran fine overnight and in the morning without problems... left it running all day.. when got back home from work the system was locked up .. had to hard reset.
next option is to try one of those live CDs...
both good suggestions on figuring this one out. I will try a week of stock settings to see how that goes and before that I will give the Linux live CD option a go too.
because of the random nature I hope that if I dont see the problem in those two scenarios its not just due to coincidence...

I noticed that whenever it had locked up like that I had just clicked on a link (could be just coincidence). Now there is a "click" sound that IE plays everytime you click on a link, I turned off that sound in "audio...
I think its the same JVM... but how can I confirm this?
I am not even sure that the websites I am surfing are even doing anything with Java. The lock up is so random that it really hasnt given me enough data to know what sites cause the problem.

Hello all,
I just recently put together this system and it has been running great for most part. The peculiar problem is that the hard lock up only happens when I am in IE or sometimes in Firefox. I would leave my machine running for hours on end doing Prime95 with all the ram etc and no...

you wont get it any more in the game.
I never get any notification of low battery when I am gaming.
The motherboard is installed in the normal fashion.. guess its not upside down.
But I feel like an idiot... the 2 fans installed on the side of the case in the fan cage (it can house 4 fans) were not blowing air into the case instead they were sucking air. Only the rear fan should be an...

Memory at DDR133 (325*0.665=216Mhz) OCZ4002048ELDCPE-K 2x1GB 2.5-3-3-8
My memory wont go higher than 225Mhz so I had to drop the multiplier.
The CPU temp are...
