I'm trying to remember what I was doing when it first froze up - just surfing the Internet I think. No I don't really play any games these days that are graphics intensive. I had to stop doing such things because the Aptiva couldn't handle it (only had an ATI Rage II+ onboard). I agree it might be cooling, the onboard temperatures were pretty high. Supposedly they've checked all the components, but I'll call them tomorrow. Didn't hear anything all weekend, though I'm not surprised I didn't.
This will, again, probably be my only post all day.
