Hehe,
    You know, My mom just got a computer, with a AMD K6-2 400Mhz, with Win98
with the same effects (random reboots) as well as GPF's and tons of illegal
operations.. Initially reconfiguring the board to 300Mhz fixed it.. On
further inspection, it turns out that Window's 98 dried up all the heat sink
compound on the CPU Fan->CPU Connection..
    It dried it so well, that it looked like there was none on it..
    So FreeBSD isn't the only hot OS, hehe.
=)

Eric
