;-), if you have a new(ish) mobo check out changes in your voltage
levels vtt, I had a motherboard (bp6 2xcelleron) that has a very
unstable vtt +5v line, once i'd resoldered a new voltage regulator onto
the board, everything was fine, a somewhat harsh solution to a dodgey
motherboard. What motherboards/mobo are you using, so I can avoid them
in future ;-)...
