Just upgraded from a p3 550 to an Athlong 1.4 and was really excited. Now any type of directX game will either lock up or crash, and the temp of the MB and CPU seem to be really hot. I've got the case open and two extra case fans pointing right on the cpu and it still runs at 140 to 150 while playing games. I'm using an AMD approved fan and a 400 watt power supply. Any Ideas?
System:
Chip: Athlon 1.4 Ghz 266 FSB
Board: Asus A7A266 bios rev 1.006 beta 1
Video: Asus 3800 TNT2
RAM : 768 megs pc133
HD : WD 18 gig, IBM 20 gig
OS : Win98 SE, Win2k Dual Boot
Sound: SB Live Value
Dir.X: 8.0a
Power: 400 Watt power supply
Problem: Machine frequently crashes during games. Some will Lock up and just repeat the sound, others will just crash to desktop or to full reboot.
