Chris, I agree. Which is why the first thing I tried was to buy a
new different motherboard (to replace the almost new motherboard).
The two mobo's have onboard video that appears to be different, yet the
display during freeze is indistinguishable.
OK but when you say different motherboard, how different? Same make and model? It could
still be from the same batch; either the logic board itself, or the components.
