I have used Xorg -configure and placed the HorizSync and VertRefresh Values for both monitors:

The most that the Machine has lasted without freezing or shutting it down on my own running Fedora 10 was 1 day.  It so far has run 3:58 with X running and playing some music and some DVD's.  I am trying to record the session as the computer starts in level 3.  when a freeze occurs I should capture some important information and get back.

Thanks for your help.
