OK...after much tapping, shaking, stirring and straw grabbing, I wasn't able nail down the issue directly. The only other mobo was put at work in another server and no 1U power supplies at hand. At that point, I was told I didn't have anymore time to play w/ the unit. I RMA'd it and they ended up replacing mobo, RAM and power supply. Been up for days (that's a big achievement for this box) now w/o a single hiccup. Thanks to everyone for your time and suggestions. ~elh -- Eric L.
