Re: Random, random freezes on several distros
Sorry for double posting: It wasn't temperature. Kinda. The temperatures are very steady, and the computer can run for hours and hours while using cpu and memory, but randomly after a few hours now, it freezes.

Random, random freezes on several distros
Hey guys. Sorry if this is such an obvious problem, but I'm a bit lost on it. I have this old computer, the only issue I ever had with it back in windows 7 was that it was slow (2GB ram at the time, now 6GB), I installed linux mint when I was gradually swtching to linux and it served me quite well ...
