I did run memtest86 and found no errors. As for the CPUTYPE, freebsd 7.0 automatically defaults to prescott for the 32 bit version if you set core2.And I did check /var/log/messages. Did not find anything unsual except for the following two line which seem to appear everytime I boot up.

503 Jul 28 16:22:14 Death-Star kernel: acpi0: reservation of 0, 9f000 (3) failed
504 Jul 28 16:22:14 Death-Star kernel: acpi0: reservation of 100000, dfd6d800 (3) failed

P.S This laptop is brand new. So I really don't think there's a hardware problem. And anyways I did run mentest86 just to check and there were no errors. I sort of have a feeling that whatever the problem is, it's in freeBSD 7.0. 6.2 was *rock-solid* for me. But that was on a different laptop.
