   Would it be possible to either slow the CPU back down to 90MHz or replace
it with a 100Mhz one? Just a test...it is possible that the instruction mix
in the kernel has changed in a way that is provoking the problem. A GPF in
the kernel is quite rare and if the overclocked CPU wasn't the cause, would
be unlikely in the traceback that you provided.
