pc hanging frequently

[Marc]

Stephen,

Since it seems to be IRQ-related, are there any devices you can remove from
the system and/or add back in one by one until the system detects it/them
and puts them in their proper place?  Also what do you have in /proc - look
there for more clues.

Thanks,
Marc
