Asus A7v build 1.xx???

Ok, I have been fighting a hardware problem since I built my machine (2 months) and have not found any resolution yet. The system is an A7v MB with Duron 700Mhz processor and the problem is a consistent lock up while playing games or using any 3D program. I can use the system for approximately 10-15 minutes before the screen just goes blank and the system locks. I have had this problem with a vast array or products installed including my ATI All in Wonder 128 Pro and an Abit NVidia DDR card. The system will lock after a fresh install with just the Video Card installed. I am confused at this point due to the fact that I have followed other members suggestions and have come up with no solution. I am currently using Rev 4.24 VIA drivers with the 4.03 AGP driver. The CPU temps are consistently between 50-52 C with a Cooler Master cooler and lots of fans, MB temps are 30-32 C. The only config issue I see is that the ASUS Probe ( 2.12 i think) says that my MotherBoard Rev is 1.xx. Is this normal or did I somehow get a pre production board?? Help me please before I sin and go back to an Intel chip.

Thanks in advance,
John Barr
 
I changed the VIO voltage to the max setting of 3.69 but the ASUS probe reads 3.61. This seems to have fixed my problems.
