Richard,

It sucks that you’re having all these problems. I think it has to somehow lie in the people who built it for you.

Mine has been rock solid, but of course it was built by iBUYPOWER. After the build, it went through a 2 day run in and testing before shipping.

I know most of our components are the same, but here’s my spec sheet. Please state what is different on yours.

It’s possible that it’s hardware or software related, but I suspect incompetence on the part of the builders.

Did you buy the parts from them?

I've never heard of a problem like you're having. That's the reason I've stayed out of the discussion.
