    Hi Kelly --

    I don't think it's heat as the crash sometimes occurs relatively quickly
    after powerup, and other times after days of running. The CPU is not being
    overclocked, and has an original AMD heatsink/fan, plus there's a fan on
    the case. However, I'm not monitoring CPU temperature in the system (don't
    have that software installed yet) so I can't say for sure what the temp is.

    Re the logs, there's nothing -- in particular, no sign of a kernel panic.

    Thanks for the quick reply!

    73,
    John
