After about 2 hours of memtest86 it seemed fine with no errors so far. Thanks for narrowing it down :)

364364 2005-06-16 12:04:00 I would suggest you have a look at Event Viewer for clues as to what the issue could be.
Event Viewer can be found at: Control Panel, open Administrative Tools, then open Event Viewer.
Then double click on System Records, and look for the red crosses.
Next time the system crashes, go to this log and see if anything comes up.

364365 2005-06-16 20:27:00 Hi Mythix,
The only serious error that I don't get is:

AMLI: ACPI BIOS is attempting to read from an illegal IO port address (0xcfc), which lies in the 0xcf8 - 0xcff protected address range. This could lead to system instability. Please contact your system vendor for technical assistance.

And that doesn't happen around the times my comp dies. It died once last night :'(

Did some Seagate tests last night (found out they were Seagate)... the test reckons there was a SMART error or something along those lines on the hard drive :'( So I think it is time... *sigh*

Thank you very much for your advice anyways guys!
Jimmy
