Drop your multi to 15 and see if the system stability improves. If it does, the problem most likely is NOT the mobo. |

I'd say that the 2600+ doesn't pull too much power from the EP-8KHA+, but does draw on a very high level of current - perhaps a little too much for an outmoded PWM.

What PSU are you using? Just curious. I've noticed on a couple of my PSUs, they seem to lose a bit of their 'umph'. On one, I thought the CPU was losing it's overclock and gave up 200mhz to get it stable. Months later, I swapped out PSUs and noticed I got the performance back. The PSU is only 3 years old, and still works in a less demanding envirnment... but what's the fun in that? ![]() If the caps on the mobo are fine, and everything else is fine, check your 5v rail. If it is low (<4.8v) or fluctuates a lot, it may be unable to handle the load.

![]() Hi everyone.. I actually registered just to be able to propose a solution to this problem. I have the same problem with my m/b. Everythings fine with my old Duron 800, but the new XP2000+ I bought yesterday causes the same error. If it does not appear during startup, it certainly occurs when I run the Memory Bandwidth benchmark in SiSoft Sandra. (BTW, the system passes all the CPU-related benchmarks without a hitch, provided that the system can survive until the login is complete in WinXP.) Things I tried:
When I checked EPOX US, I found the following: KB article The article does not cover 8KHA+ but I think it's worth a try. I'll try it tonight and post the results. If anyone gets to try it before I do, please send the results as well.

Disabling SSE? Ugh. If you are interested in the performance of your SSE-enabled applications (think DirectX), and this "fix" does indeed work, I'd consider a newer board anyhow. Curious though, I wonder why this is a KB article for the 8K5A*, but not the 8K3A*? (Same NB, different SB).

I don't like it either ![]() PS: I have searched many forums for this problem and I have seen a few 8KHA+ problems and lots of 8K5A* problems but no 8K3A*..
