I'm trying to refurbish an old IBM Thinkpad A20m. I've installed Windows 2000 on it. However, I get many random crashes and BSODs. I'm replaced the RAM, re-installed many times, installed a new hard drive, etc. Currently I'm ordering a new CMOS battery, but i'm not sure it's that. The only conclusion I have left is that there may be a microfracture somewhere on the motherboard that is causing the system to fail intermittenly. However, I am unsure how to diagnose such an error as every BSOD gives me a different message (i.e. page_fault_in_non_page_fault , etc) and set of memory registers.
