I had to replace my motherboard. Lately, I'm getting intermittant lockups.
Some times it happens in games, other times in windows apps. At times, it
occurs after a period of inactivity.

I have an ATI radeon 9800 pro, ABIT NF7, AMD 1800+

Can anyone suggest some things to look at in order to resolve these
FRUSTRATING events?
 
have you looked in Control Panel/Administrative tools/event
viewer..............????
if so what does it say??

Did you update the drivers ???

You can check the devices and drivers like this:

Here's the text from the Application event:

The COM+ Event System detected a bad return code during its internal
processing. HRESULT was 8007041F from line 44 of
d:\qxp_slp\com\com1x\src\events\tier1\eventsystemobj.cpp. Please contact

Here's the text from one of four System events:

DCOM got error "The service database is locked. " attempting to start the
service netman with arguments "" in order to run the server:
