I picked up this board to replace what i thought was my blown Abit board (turned out it was the chip not the board, not relavent to this topic)
when i boot it up, 50% of the time it makes it to the Windows XP startup selector screen, (Normal, safe, safe w/ networking) no matter what it select it goes black, and within 5 seconds it reboots by itself, never getting to the Windows XP startup screen.
the other 50% of the time it hangs on the big colorful LanParty logo screen, and hangs.
Here are the specs for the system
Antec SmartPower 400W PSU
AMD XP1600+ (Aero 7 Lite cooler)
2 x 256mb Crucial PC2700
Geforce 4 MX440 64mb
80Gig WD SE HDD
BTW, all components still work fine on my old board..
if anyone has had the same problem or knows what it might be, chime in
