I just bailed out of an HP 800MZ machine for the same reasons - random
lockups.  HP machines are the complete POS.  Replaced it with a brand X
Celeron from my neighborhood dealer, and now the problem is gone.  I do
have an HP100 laserjet which works fine, but the toner cartridges wear
out way too often, so I think I've bought my last HP unit.  Besides,
they'll probably be using COMPAQ units now - also POS.
