illegal operations

[evil_homer]

I made a huge mistake in buying a low grade motherboard, a "Future Power Kt133+" the second I bought it I began to get illegal operation messages, and get booted from games and other programs. I reformatted under every os i could find all versions of windows and two versions of Linux still the problems presist, i have tryed using it without the motherboard drivers, and with them, to no effect. I am at a compleat loss, for the love of god please help me, Future Power has yet to!

Hmmm, a Via chipset motherboard with stability issues, who would have thought!

Try using a different harddisk and do a clean OS installation. Also do not use the same floppy (if you're using any) for formating. If the problem seems to go away. Ask someone to help you to do a low-level format of the first (not the second) harddisk followed by a normal format.

It don't come easy.......not always.
