Appears to be either a memory or compatibility issue.

Okay, at least the computer is not freezing to the point I have to hit the reboot button on the front.
Now, I'm thinking I could go through all the extensions and find out if one is causing this problem.  Or I could somehow get the latest copy of OrangePCi...
 
Stay tuned...
