I recently built a system based on the 8K7A. Anytime I go to run a 3D app such as 3dmark 2000 or 2001, the system will lockup within a few seconds. In 2D applications, the system runs great - so I don't think this is a heat issue. Since I'm new to the AMD front, I installed the files off of the Epox CD + Via 4in1 + AMD AGP patch. Have I done something wrong here? I'm also using the Det3 10.80's as well. I believe that I have the BIOS settings correct, I have tried an AGP apature size of 64MB and 128MB with the same results. I also have the memory settings set at default, along with pretty much everything else. The processor shows to be around 43C in the BIOS.
