Metla the A7V600 is based on the KT600 chipset so its not exactly an old motherboard.	Pete O'Neil (250)
277018	2004-09-30 01:23:00	Nothing is being overclocked.... Except maybe the AGP Voltage now. Infact, with this higher voltage the only thing it's crashed on is the second 3DMark03 sound test... Updated BIOS to latest revision. Interesting really, the thing crashed and restarted giving this error message for the first time... sal.neoburn.net (I didn't name it) Now I'm not sure if it is the problem or not - but I wonder if the latest drivers, which we installed, could be naughty? Bearing in mind it didn't work with the 56.64 or 56.72 versions from nVidia either...	Growly (6)
277019	2004-09-30 01:49:00	So what were the error details "To see what data the error report contains, click here" or was it the usual unreadible MS (machine) report. If you turn off error reporting can you reproduce a more meaningfull error message in XP? Cheers Murray P	Murray P (44)
277020	2004-09-30 02:13:00	I dunno what it says under the Send error report button - from experience it isn't much use (it's always different :s). However it hasn't come up with that since then, so fingers crossed...	Growly (6)

277022	2004-09-30 02:27:00	Patrick 2003 perhaps you should read some other threads over at OCNZ before posting, if you had you would know that not all PSU's are created equally. A favourite example of mine is a 500w Hyena vs. 300w Enermex, the Enermex would outpreform the Hyena even though it has a lower total wattage. Have a gander at this (forums.overclockers.co.nz) thread.	Pete O'Neil (250)
277023	2004-09-30 03:43:00	Just because your mobo works with another video card doesn't mean it isn't broken - just not very broken. If your drivers are up to date, your mobo drivers are up to date, you have SP2 installed, cand it still won't go, blame the motherboard. HOWEVER, you say when setting it to 1.6V it only reboots on the sound test. Wouldn't sound have something to do with the sound card? Just my 2c.	george12 (7)
277024	2004-09-30 04:04:00	It sounds to me as if his AGP/PCI frequencies are out of sync	Pete O'Neil (250)
277025	2004-09-30 04:16:00	th shuttle psu's are pretty good for 250W if you read on	Patrick 2003 (277)
277026	2004-09-30 04:17:00	Funnily enough, sound card is integrated - but the windows error suggests to me that this is more of a software conflict of drivers, not a hardware fault. Although I always suspected there was something wrong with the motherboard that didn't shine through on other cards, it is growing less and less likely that the hardware is to blame. What surprises me most is that cards so similar (the FX5600 and the FX5700) have different behaviour in the same motherboard... Nonetheless I think it has been sold - as the card is not at fault, and the motherboard seems as fine as possible, then another card maybe the solution - these two simply weren't meant for each other.
