It sounds like hardware to me, and if the install is the same on all the 
servers and the others work fine, then setting nopic is probably just a 
bodge to get around the faulty hardware issue.

In my exp usually this sort of thing is related to RAM. If it's 
practical, then I would swap the RAM between 2 servers and see if the 
crash moves with the RAM (even new RAM can be faulty - it's a numbers 
game for the manufacturers). Alan
