        (Sorry if this is off-topic for the mailing list, but I am having
hardware problems and I can't seem to find anybody who can help me.  I
thought the systems programmers from the list would be able to decipher the
messages)  

        I am running SunOS 4.1.3_U1 on my 4/110 and am experiencing some BAD
TRAP problems.  It happens with just about all executables that I run on my
system, but not on regular intervals or with any pattern.  Here's an exerpt
from my /var/adm/messages:

        Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!  I am trying to use
this machine as a server and with it crashing regularly, it's really annoying.

        My apologies for the off-topic posting, but I need the assistance of
people who know this stuff inside out.

Thanks.

Mike.
