CentOS - Aug 2005 - Server freeze

Hi all.

Two days ago a server got freezed, not responding at console or by LAN.
I noticed both caps lock and scroll lock LEDs at the keyboard flashing.

I think this could be a hardware problem, but I don't recall where I
read about this flashing indicators.

The hardware is an Intel based white box PC running CentOS 3.5 fully
updated.

Anybody knows what the flashing LEDs means?

Regards.

The last time I saw flashing LEDs was during a kernel panic. This 
usually is a hardware issue (it has been for me). YMMV

HTH,
