I was at a LAN this past weekend, when a friend of mine experienced another bout of the LAN disease. On the first startup after resetting his computer, he had an error saying something about "Paging Fault in a Non Paging area" After this, his computer was having partial boots, or it would power down when booting up. The most common thing was when hitting the power button, the computer would idle for several seconds, no POST, and then shut off. Randomly, it started working, and now that he has it at home, its doing the same type of thing. We reseated everything, tested it with another power supply, examined everything for visual damage, etc, and can find nothing wrong. Anyone ever hear of anything like this before???

System specs (dont know them all, ill post them when i find them out)

AMD CPU
unknown mobo
Enermax PSU
Radeon 9800 Pro
