Connect to the system with MONITOR program. See if you see any issues with the Timing Crystal. If so, its a hardware failure indeed, and you'll start seeing other flakey things happen over the next few weeks until its replaced.

i do not know about the 406 but the 403 has a time clock battery which plugs onto the main board. i found this out when i had to install a new vcm.
maybe that is at fault not the mainboard
