CPU temp. according to gkrellm and the cmos, 42 Celsius, rpm of the fan 4300. Temp of the housing with two fans, 32 Celsius. Wattage of the power supply, (one month old) 400 watt because I suspected my old power supply to be the cause of same problem. It had only 250 watt. Defect ram was exchanged and I check it regularly. If I check the values of gkrellm and the values that my cmos shows me they are same. Could though that the sensors are somehow defect but that is difficult to check I assume.
Reason why I am looking at the software side is because I have tried to exclude hardware failures and the symptom always shows up with the use of find. I can normally see in advance when a freeze or reboot are in the make. Will next time kill the find and see if I survive the expected reboot. Any ideas how to pin down the reboot thing further. Are there any CPU hungry programs that I could run unattended in order to try to repeat the freeze/reboot? Running find in console or in ICEwm also repeats the symptoms.
