the 4.4 was from turbo boost, it's been running at 3.8 for awhile. I've set the bios to default, hit the CMOS reset button, and even taken the battery out to clear everything in order to run at stock settings. Still no luck. Yesterday I even removed the cpu cooler, and reapplied thermal paste...

Yeah, I tried all 3 slots

I had a cheap GeForce 9400 GT lying around that I used, and the system froze even with that.

Reinstalled windows again with the RAM set to XMP, and still had a freeze.

I don't remember if XMP was enabled when I recently reinstalled windows, but I guess I'll try that just for the hell of it

If I can't find a solution for this I might have to take you up on your offer. Yeah, bought a brand new PSU back when I thought my old one was the issue. I tried running the system with the optical drive disconnected, and only one stick of ram, and it still froze. I already got a new board...

The only option I have is to take it to a PC repair store and have them run some tests. Unfortunately I don't have another board that supports that CPU. Also, ran HCI memtest for almost 3 hours with no errors reported.

Is it really possible for 2 motherboards to have the exact same problem though? Is there any chance it could be the CPU instead? That's basically the only thing I haven't replaced at this point. Everytime I ran P95 I used "blend". I'll try running it again with large FFT selected. Also, I...

Yeah, I ran it for about 8+ hours with no errors reported.

I ran it off the cd, but since I'd have to actually play a game to ensure a crash, there was only so much I could do without actually installing the OS.

Tried installing Ubuntu but kept getting an error when trying to install the bootloader so I gave up. Ended up reinstalling Windows 7 to another HDD to test things, and it froze again. I'll test the PC at another house to rule out house wiring since I'm not sure what else to do at this point.

I actually was able to return the board to newegg, got a refund, and bought a brand new board from a local computer store. I just checked out the other thread. Problem is a bit different but it looks like he hasn't found a solution either for his problem.

I've run memtest before with no issues, and I've scanned all of my hdds. How would I go about stressing the PCIE controller? I disconnected my cd drive, and ran the system with only one stick of RAM, and only my C drive connected, and still had a freeze. I even tried using the one stick of RAM...

I've tried both 1.65 and 1.5. Never tried high than that though. When I set the timing to auto, it runs at 11-11-11-28. I've tried running things with both that, and the usual 9-11-10-28

Auto always sets the voltage to 1.65. I manually set that to 1.5 when that happens.
