Help!
Recently I've been having issues where my homeseer server will lock up on a semi-regular basis. At first when this started I though it was a heat issue with the mini-itx atom based machine I run homeseer on, but that turned out to be a wild goose chase. I can use prime95 to get the machine hotter than it ever gets in normal operation and it doesn't skip a beat. I noticed that the great majority of my random lock ups happen overnight when the nightly optimization is running. Under further investigation I found that if I fire up z-seer within a few runs of testing the system will lock up. When I trace back the date this started, it was not long after I switched out my z-stick II for a z-troller in the quest for better reliability. So it seems to be heavy activity on the z-troller is the definite cause of my system crashes.
Has anyone had similar lockup issues? Any ideas? Since the Intel Atom D510 board I use does not have a serial port I bought the TU-S9 usb to serial adapter. I'm running all this under windows XP. Could the adapter be the problem? I've never had much luck with the quality of TrendNet's stuff so it wouldn't surprise me if that were the weak link the chain. Of course I don't want to just go blindly replacing components unless I have to.
Any help would be appreciated.
