Took the nVidia drivers out. Ran HOT MEM checks, all passed (elimnating RAM issues). Same as this time last month. Got hard lock ups every 2 - 3 days. No syslog / debug ever given - pdflush ,when top is left running on console - shows 100% CPU usage. FINALLY got this morning a EIP error : Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000020 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: printing eip: Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: c0160620 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: *pde = 00000000 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: Oops: 0000 [#1] Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: Modules linked in: nls_iso8859_15 usb_storage uhci_hcd nvidia_agp i2c_nforce2 sata_nv sd _mod ide_scsi agpgart sata_sil libata genrtc Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: CPU: 0 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: EIP: 0060:[] Not tainted VLI Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: EFLAGS: 00010283 (2.6.18 #1) Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: EIP is at iput+0x17/0x65 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: eax: 00000000 ebx: cf2aee70 ecx: cf2aee88 edx: f7cf4000 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: esi: cf2aee70 edi: d5e8c128 ebp: f7cf5e84 esp: f7cf5e80 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: ds: 007b es: 007b ss: 0068 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: Process kswapd0 (pid: 182, ti=f7cf4000 task=f7cdaa90 task.ti=f7cf4000) Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: Stack: d5e8c120 f7cf5e98 c015dc4e d5e8c120 d5e8c120 d5e8c128 f7cf5ea8 c015e093 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: f5e96e34 d5e8c120 f7cf5ec4 c015e1cc 00000000 0000003c 00017124 00000000 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: 000000a6 f7cf5ecc c015e441 f7cf5f08 c0136fef 005c4900 00000000 00017124 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: Call Trace: Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] show_stack_log_lvl+0x8f/0x97 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] show_registers+0x116/0x17f Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] die+0x108/0x1ba Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] do_page_fault+0x3a4/0x481 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] error_code+0x39/0x40 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] dentry_iput+0x5b/0x73 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] prune_one_dentry+0x56/0x79 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] prune_dcache+0x116/0x14a Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] shrink_dcache_memory+0x19/0x31 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] shrink_slab+0x12f/0x18a Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] balance_pgdat+0x1c4/0x29c Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] kswapd+0xf4/0xf6 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] kthread+0x79/0xa1 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: [] kernel_thread_helper+0x5/0xb Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: Code: 00 55 89 e5 75 07 e8 de fd ff ff eb 05 e8 bd fe ff ff c9 c3 55 85 c0 89 e5 53 89 c 3 74 58 83 bb 70 01 00 00 20 8b 80 cc 00 00 00 <8b> 40 20 75 08 0f 0b 73 04 e6 94 30 c0 85 c0 74 0b 8b 50 14 85 Oct 25 04:45:02 desktop kernel: EIP: [] iput+0x17/0x65 SS:ESP 0068:f7cf5e80 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Problems seemt to have started when I added at start of summer, a SIL 3112A SATA controller and a WD 250GB WD2500SD-01K Rev: 08.0 250GB SATA disk. -- Ben Duncan - Business Network Solutions, Inc. 336 Elton Road Jackson MS, 39212 "Never attribute to malice, that which can be adequately explained by stupidity" - Hanlon's Razor
