Hangs/freezes during "Calibrating Delay Loop...."

Hi All,

I have a PI 166mhz system running redhat 7.3 that has been working as
a gateway/firewall for about 18 months with no problems.

Yesterday it stopped working. When I tried to reboot I got as far as
"Calibrating Delay Loop........" but no further.

I have changed the RAM, discinnected the hard disk etc all to no
avail.

I then thought I would jsut re-load it. I can't even run the install,
it stops at the same place.

Can anyone give me a definitive answer as to what is happening? Much
googling has only produced the fact that a few other people have had
similar problems and that it probably is a hardware problem.

TIA,

Ninereeds
