Hi,
 Did you upgrade your system? Some of the firmware may have to be updated. I was
told that some of the firmware is flash so it can be changed by U/L new
firmware.  With system X I was told the SCSI cards, & Some of the drives need to
be up dated. When updating the the computer gets done, sometime freezes. But upon
reboot is fine with the new flash firmware.
 Sounds like the new firmware needs to be fixxed as well.
Take Care
