Neither have I, I simply touch something that is earthed, or if it has a built in power supply I plug the PC in but switch it off at the wall and the power supply, then the case is nicely earthed.

re.....Could be static damage during installing which typically results in strange random errors.  Did you wear a grounded wrist strap?

All my working years in electronics I never used a wrist strap or did anyone else. 

Ironically all my boxes bought inclusive work fine, its the one box I bought bare bones that has problems.

It will just randomly lockup, from several times a day to running solid on Folding@Home for months (makes an nice hand warmer), its bizarre.  I'm reasonably sure the RAM is fine (pretty sure I ran memtest for a day to check), although its hard to tell given these closed boxes are going to make the RAM run hot.

I even re applied the paste which dramatically brought the temps down, but it still happens.

Thought the unit was dead, but got a really quick support reply, flipped battery out and back and its alive again.
