    I've had screen/system freezes with MUI ScreenMode changes in the past, and I use the same hardware, MacMini 1.5GHz 1GB RAM

    Some websites, gobble up RAM, with JavaScript, etc., and then you run out of RAM for OWB, and then anything can happen. :-(

    So, I'd think it's something running amok/affecting the stability of your system, rather than the hardware itself, but at this stage, from the details you've given it could be other problems, though I still consider the most likely issue will be that some software is affecting your system's stability.

    If you didn't when you bought the system, clean out the heatsink & fan, then I'd do that now, and every so often, as it's quite easy to do so, and keep it out of dusty/fluff gathering zones as clogging up/overheating the CPU can lead to premature death of the CPU, from the information I have acquired over the years.
    MacMini 1.5GHz,64MB VRAM, PowerBooks A1138/9 (Model 5,8/9),PowerMac G5 2.3GHz(DP), iMac A1145 2.1GHz 20", all with MorphOS v3.18+,Airport,Bluetooth,A1016 Keyboard,T-RB22 Mouse,DVD-RW-DL,MiniMax,Firewire/USB2 & MacOSX 10.4/5
