Hi,

I just installed this motherboard along with 1700+ (not overclocked) the other day and have had lots of weird issues with it. I am running a clean WinXP sp1 install with all drivers from the soltek site (used AC 97' 3.44 drivers for sound). The main issue is a BSOD that is occuring randomly with the board, also media player locks up after a movie has been on repeat or played a couple of times in a row, IE has also crashed several times. I know that the system has good memory because I ran memtest for over 18hrs and it found no errors. Here is a screen shoot of the IRQ's in use Here. The only pci device that I have in the computer is a Raid controller/ata133 card. Please lmk what you think because I think this is a sign of a bad motherboard, but not sure. Thanks

On a practical note, try relaxing your memory timings, ensure that the memory is running synchronously with the CPU's frontside bus (100%), and bump the memory voltage to about 2.7V. Good luck! :)
