TwilightOne 0 Posted October 19, 2005 I had exactly same problem with exactly same configuration, but now it seems to be fine... In my case, I think, problems were caused by my buggy Radeon X600. It was freezing system repeatedly many times, so system files were damaged badly, I guess... Virus checks don't discover anything. I've updated BIOS (just in case...) and wiped system completely, then reinstalled everything. As I said, everything works fine now. Share this post Link to post

tonyabelson 0 Posted October 22, 2005 i have that same mainboard but basically the same specs, cept that my video card is a Nvidia Geforce 6800 GT OC. while im playing a game it would crash and when it restart but the screen wouldnt show up... eventually after some trouble shooting i realised the video card itself was defective... it had a loose heatsink which was barely noticable and was overheating... so i sent the card back and they sent me a brand spanking new one and its been working fine ever since.
