I have a the above MB, 3gig P4, and am running a (ATI )Radeon 9800 pro video
card, with a 40 gig maxtor harddrive. Everytime I start playing (any) game
the computer reboots after about 30 min....have tried a 8500 Radeon also a
true ATI made video card... used differnt video drivers, different bios's on
MB ...and same problem , I have reformatted and installed XP several times,
still the same problem. Any help will be appreciated.

Try looking in control panel > Administrative Tools > Event Logger.

Double click on the Application events on the right to see what errors were
reported.

Can you check the temperature of the mobo right after the reboot? Go itno
the bios to check it, maybe its overheating?

Get a copy of motherboard monitor MBM5 and log temps and
voltages to a text file. The monitoring rate can be set to
every ten seconds. The file is committed after every
reading, so after you reboot, the conditions just before
the reboot will be at the end of the text file. Chances
are, something is overheating.

HTH,
Paul

My guess is that you are either overheating, (cpu or video card), or you
have a poor quality or underpowered power supply. Is your memory compatible
with that board?
