Suse 10 Via Processor Hangs

I am trying to install Suse 10 on a Powerspec with a VIA EZRA 900mhz processor. The install goes without any problems. I however keep getting random system hangs that require a power off to correct. I have tried installing with and without acpi support. Same problem. I am sure the system is stable it was running RedHat 7.3 for a long time without any problems. Logs don't show anything that gives me a clue as to what is happening. Any ideas? Thanks Doug
