All-
I just recently purchased this motherboard/CPU combo from Frys/Outpost
and have come upon a strange problem. First off I have already replaced
the MB and still have the same problem. I am going to use this system as
a PC based firewall. And when I start data tranfers on both NIC interfaces (Onboard and PCI based) the system either reboots or freezes. All drivers are up to date and this only happens when both interfaces are used at the same
time. I assume it has to do with interrupts and the system not being able to keep up with all the outstanding requests. But I just cannot track it down and have searched the internet for days. Also I have purchased another 2 sets of ram with the same results. Has anyone seen this type of issue on this MB?
Here is what I have:
PT800CE-A (v1.0) - Not the current BIOS/Upgraded on the other MB/
Same Result/Issue
P4 3.2Ghz CPU
1 GB DDR PC3200 Ram (Geil - Which is what they reccomend)
300 GB Drive IDE (ATA 133)
Windows Xp Pro (SP2-All Patched)
Radeon 7000 (AGP) (Current set of drivers)
D-Link DFE-530TX+ (Current set of srivers)
The system runs perfectly until I start the transfers. Can run fine for days.
Just when both NIC's are being used it when the problem occurs. Any help
will be appreciated.
