PIX 515 locking but not in recall

[wraights]

I have had two 515 firewalls (bought one and then had to have another rma'ed to me) and they both have done the same thing, locked up so much that you can't even console into them. But the thing is, according to Cisco's site on how they are taking in 515's and replacing them, my firewall's serial number doesn't match the "bad batch"; but this continues to be a big problem. Has anyone experienced this same problem? This firewall has locked up on me twice today in a 20 minute period!!!

FYI:

My mistake actually...our firewall was within the range of serial numbers. But when talking to the TAC folks, they mentioned to me that I was not the only one to have mentioned that to them. Although I did make a mistake, other people are experiencing the problem.

I also have 2 515's but they've only locked up several times this year..... bandwidth issue from what I hear;
