Something I tell every "brand new KT7" owner, use the CMOS jumper and reset the bios (with the system un-plugged). Sometimes it fixes random flakyness. Watch where your bios is assigning your devices. This is done during startup, not in windows. Sometimes windows will re-map an IRQ so it doesn't show a conflict but the bios will show that 2 devices are sharing an IRQ that shouldn't.
