If you have a minimal install then start testing. Use a cpu intensive program and run it for 2-3 days as a test. If you have replaced the simms, you could try to disable your cache from the bios and run your program. If you still get problems it may be your motherboard. There is also the possibility of the hd but its not likely from what you've mentioned. Get in the habit of checking /var/log/messages. Any serious problems will show up here. There is a good signal 11 reference on the web somewhere - unfortunatly I can't remember the address. Hope this helps.
