After over a month of trying just about everything suggested on this forum, I though I was in the clear. I rebuilt my Raid 0 stripe. I removed all pci cards from the system. Intsalled Win2k with only the AIW video card. Everything ran great. I upgraded to 4.26 minus the bus mastering driver. I added the pci cards one by one.
First the Realtek Ethernet PCI - rebooted and everything was stable
Next the dreaded Monster 400 Sound card - rebooted and even did a scandisk while flipping through channels as fast as I can using the AIW tuner. Everything was great.
Then the Maxtor firewire PCI card went in.. Still everything stable even with the torture test.
Next I updated my browser to 5.5 including the critical updates. Rebooted and things seemed ok. However I didnt torture test.
And finally since I was on a roll I added win2k Service Pack 1. Rebooted and I was back to my old problems.
The computer was freezing at random.
I uninstalled Service Pack 1, still the same results. UGH.
I guess I have to start all over now...
Any ideas. ASPI seemed to doing a fine job. Everything was on irq 7 with no problems. until SP1.
THanks,
