[mythtv-users] Mythfrontend causing Fatal Systems Crash

[Dave Ansell]

Sadly, the correct diagnosis was hardware.
After reseating the memory and cards it got worse and couldnt fully boot.
Now it has died completely, not even a boot screen or bios beep.   (Tested 
on second PSU)

I can feel another hardware recommendations thread coming on   :-(

Thanks for all the advice anyway.
Dave

I had a similar issue, which I was "sure" was due to mythbuntu.  However, 
after the motherboard failed, and I moved everything but that and the CPU to 
another box it has been up and running for several days now.  So for me it 
was either hardware or how the IRQ (or whatever else) from the setup on the 
failed box.  If yours recently started failing and nothing was updated, I 
would go with hardware failure.

Folk on this list gave a few suggestions to help my diagnose my system and 
the best was to download the ultimate boot cd.  It has a few tools like 
memtest and many others that I did not try.  Or the mythbuntu live cd has 
memtest too.

Good luck.

Nathan.
