I've been having this recurring problem, and it only seems to happen "sometimes." Usually while on the home screen, I'll see random rectangles of black appear on the bottom of my screen. At this point MP will pretty much lock up, and sometimes I'll see a quick flash of a blue screen before the computer reboots itself. Other times it just locks up until I manually reset the computer.

It seems to be related to the fanart issue, because in place of fan art sometimes, I will see random characters appear, and other times I'll actually see images from the skin/gui. I've attached a couple of log files that were in the /log folder. I tried using mp-watchdog, but unfortunately I'm not able to quit the process when it acts up.

Please help, this problem is really turning me off from MP now, and also odd that I've been using it for well over a year, and this just started happening maybe a month ago.
