I purchased this board about 3 month ago and it ran great for 2 months. Now everything runs but I get lock up with certain video operations. I have tried the following :

Re installed OS (2 times) both 98se and ME
tried using different versions of geforce 2 mx 200 drivers
switched video card
changes bios settings optimal, performance, and altered to very basic


What locks it up
run DXDIAG to run display tests direct draw in full screen
game black and white
opening IE 5.5 several windows while pages loading
general web browsing

I have read about using multiple sdrams can cause problems with this board. I have two 256 PC 133s in now I will try dropping down to just one.

If anyone has ideas I would sure appreciate the help.
