Hi guys; I'm posting to see if anyone else is having the problems two of my friends are having with their 1.4GHz AMD Athlon boxes.
Their boxes are, as I already mentioned, 1.4GHz CPU equipped, with ASUS K7A266 and K7M266 boards. Their components are decent parts, with decent CPU fans, and additional cooling slot-fan in mid-tower cases. These two boxes consistently reboot after extended operation (3+ hours) and it would seem that it is heat-related... Anyone else seeing this problem??
