Only got one responce from Joe Fletcher telling me to check the
seating of the CPU and memory and consider replacing those parts
if reseating doesn't help. Certainly good advice and I am actually
alreading runnign tests with different memory modules in different
memory slots.
So basically this seem to be a hardware problem and I will
have to locate the broken parts and replace them.
