hi there,
i ve been getting these total system lockups lately
happens every 15-30 minutes or so
checked everything already, tested it all on my 2nd system btw, memory is fine, cpu is obviously fine, video card is fine too
nothing is overclocked, everything's running at default voltages
nothing is overheating
took all the boards out of my case, with the exception of the video card
erased all the data on both of my hd's with that quantum data eraser util, repartitioned & reformatted em, did a complete surface scan on both, no errors found no bad sectors, no nothing.. still no use
cant even install win98 completely without getting 2-3 lock ups.
damn this sucks, it started happening to me like a week and a half ago, whats the deal???
think it might be my motherboard or something?? i just got it like 2 months ago, brand new in a box
my sys specs are as follows,
p233 mmx @233 with a p3 hsf
asus p5a-b
ati rage pro 2x agp 8mb (ati @work)
generic pc66 32mb ram stick
2 quantum hd's, fireball se & st
logitech mouseman2 ps/2
generic 250W AT PS, working just fine, quite clearly more than enough for my sys
thanx in advance
