It maybe useful to have full specs of this machine, maybe you don't have 
exotic hardware, but you may have agingn or failing pieces of hardware 
that are starting to decay. Who knows maybe even file a bug report with 
your machine's specs... It could also be helpful to know if both of 
these computers share something in common that may be causing this 
problem to appear?? I still think that having full specs of both would 
be interesting to at least rule out any HW dependant factors.
