P4P800-E Deluxe Problems

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.asus (More info?)

hey there people i was wondering if you could solve a problem

my problem is that on random occasions my speakers start screaming
"System Failed CPU Test"

i have read that other people have had this problem, but their
computer doesnt work while it happens.. but mine is working fine, it
doesnt crash at all and i get no problems..

oh im running a p4 3ghz prescott... do you think it could be that i
dont have enough power? oh look it stoped chattering

could anyone spare me some thoughts

hmm interesting... crazy but interesting
do you have an oldish monitor? i have had mine for maybe +5 years and
i didnt bother upgrading it when i built the new comp

what else is weird is... i can sometimes make it stop when i put in a
dvd and keep on turning it on and off or when i play wc3 i keep on
going thought the menu’s

maybe i shouldnt use the built in sound card and buy one...
