No sooner did I proclaim I was done that I started to have stability issues >.>

The system is currently freezing at random intervals, but usually only when I'm present. When I say freezing, I mean completely frozen - display is frozen, sound goes into a high-pitched whine, keyboard states are locked, mouse optic state is locked, and you can't get out of it without a hardware reset.

After the first three times, I was hoping it was due to a display driver incompatibility, so I downgraded from the recent drivers Sapphire provides to ATI's reference drivers. Naturally, that didn't solve the problem (though it did fix the really messed up font smoothing). I have yet to run a comprehensive test on the RAM, which would be damn annoying to have to replace, as I do not have any replacements for it. So, if I had to send it in for a return, I'd be without a computer for a while yet again >.>

I just can't win this one, can I? I'm starting to wonder if I should have just lived with the flaky PS/2 and USB controller on the old mobo...

EDIT: Memtest-86 reports no problems with the RAM, so that's not the issue... temperatures at freeze-time are 43C CPU, 35C mobo...

As for happier things? I'll be heading down to SF today. I haven't gone in a while, so it'll be nice to see people again...
