I used to get random lockups and I narrowed the cause but I found out I think it was just my mobo and Nvidia's IDE driver causing the problem. But now I dont have the problem after I've wiped the drive a few times for various things.

I'll have to get back to you on the boot up thing. How long does it usually take to reformat anyway?
