I've already had mucho problems when I installed this MB, mostly due to the fact that I am not using IDE drives, but U160 SCSI drives (with adaptec 29160card). I finally was able to install win'98 on this board. Everything ran smoothly. So I was like : okay, it's 4AM now, time to go to bed & I'll look more into it tomorrow.
When I booted the PC up the next morning, everything seemed fine. However, everytime after 1 or 2 minutes of usage, the screen gets completely garbeled. Like unreadable. I'm talking real color-spaghetti here. A cold bor is necessary to correct this.
So I tried running the system at a lower mem speed (133 -> 100). No good.
I was not able to solve this problem, but if it takes any longer, I swear I will put my old BX back in!
My system : PIII733 (with golden orb cooler) with 128Mb infineon PC133 RAM, adaptec 29160 card (pci slot 2 - according to the manual the only PCI slot that does not share IRQ's), Matrox G400MAX w driver v 5.52 (card workes fine in my other system), SBlive platinum, 3com etherlink card.
The system is not overclocked (I was waiting for that until it ran stable)
Can anybody help me out here?
Thx!
