Kubuntu locks up

[Thug55]

Hi,

I've just installed Kubuntu 6.06 on my PC, it has a ASUS P4P800 SE motherboard, 2.8GHz P4 HT intel chip, SB Live sound card and an ATI 9500 grpahics card.

The installation works fine but the system completly locks up at random. The only way to resolve this is too re-boot the box. Has anybody seen similar problems with their systems ?

I did try ubuntu 6.06 and had exactly the same problem

Re: Kubuntu locks up

There are any number of things it could be ranging from thermal problems (always a favorite for random events in July), a bad harddrive, a bad memory chip (easy to test. Run Memtest86+ instead of rebooting, the next time it locks up). If it doesn't lock up in windows, you MAY be able to eliminate the thermal problem.
