I have rev 1.06 of the a7n8x deluxe Win XP all updates . and I have minor problems
Its seems about 30 mins into playing a game it suddenly kick me out to the desktop, and sometimes reboots. Has anyone else had this problem? Would updating bios be helpfull? Any suggestions? I have a athlon xp 2600 333 with the boxed heatsink, bios says its running about 115F after iv used it for awhile...could it be to hot? Also when it reboots windows sometimes reports-"your computer has recovered from a serious error" Send to microsoft.
I have a radeon 9500 pro and will update drivers to see of that helps. Iv heard ppl have this problem before I just dont remember what they said fixed it.
All help and suggestions would be appreciated.

Thats not running hot at all. I have the same mobo, and I had the same problem as you. I backed my FSB down a touch and it stopped. But, thats not to say there is a million variables that could be causing that problem. Such as a weak PSU, ram problems etc etc
