after reading alot of replies in this thread, it seems lots of people are putting it down to a mythtv specific issue - i havent seen anything to say otherwise...<br><br>Josu - have you tried tests outside of mythtv yet?<br>
i personally use UBCD (ultimate boot CD), and would go through both memtest86, and one of the HDD tests - i use MHDD, but it's very reliant on bios HDD setup (must be set to ata/pata/sata compatible - raid/achi do not work), and then use F4 todo a surface scan which will show speed and any bad sectors it finds.<br>
<br>i did notice the odd freeze of mythtv a month or 2 ago, but i have since updated my mythtv install (0.24.1 branch) which seems to of fixed the micro freezes.<br><br><br>fwiw, im on a core2duo, single channel RAM, FE/BE system on a 500gb 16mb cache drive.<br>
