Stability Issue
My system intermittently locks up, very unstable
1. Check the CPU Temp, it might be overheating. Change the CPU
FAN.
2. Do not over clock your CPU
3. Check the specification of the memory module, maybe the M/B do
not support it.
4. Go to BIOS setup and load fail safe settings. Please check if the
system performance in the BIOS setup is set to Turbo/Maximum.
5. Check website for latest BIOS update.
6. Check website for FAQ’s regarding instability issue.
7. Change the memory module or CPU.
8. The power supply might not have enough wattage to support all the
peripherals. If your system has other peripherals connected, like
CD-RW, extra HDD, etc. disconnect them.
9. Install VIA 4 in 1 driver.
My system intermittently locks up, during Windows installation.
1. Go to BIOS and load “load optimized default”.
2. Check website for any BIOS update.
3. If still has the problem, remove all other add-on cards except CPU/
Memory/ Video card/Hard disk. See if you can finish Windows
installation. Then put peripherals in one by one to identify which
one cause the lockup.
My system will not boot-up when I set my CPU to 133MHz FSB, works
with 100MHz FSB
1. Make sure to put some thermal paste above the CPU.
