No actually, I haven't changed a thing - but it has gotten a lot hotter in
the house.  The only unusual thing I did was leave my computer on for
several days.  I'm even running my cpu BELOW rated speed (120 running at
100) because it's flaky at 120.  I think I may have a motherboard problem
(I think it's a cheepo - no name that I can find).  I'll try swapping ram
and see what happens.  I might even try swapping processors (maybe I can
snag a 166 for a while <g>).

Ok.  Sounds like it's definantly a hardware problem then.  Thanks!
