For some reason the computer wont run stable unless the I/O voltage is cranked to 3.5 which then reads 3.53. Anything less and it gives an error upon booting into windows... not a BSOD or anything, but a small this file couldnt run or something I think. I have an Abit KT7A motherboard with a newly installed(but not new in itself) 1.2 Athlon which was in another system previously.
Temps check out and other voltages check out.
The system drops from 3dMark2001 after while (first 2 hours, then yesterday it gave an actual directx error that messed up the computer and I have to reboot) and other games. I also cannot patch properly the Earth & Beyond beta because it cause some sort of read error there. I have all the bios defaults set to fail-safe and have the latest bios installed.
Everything appears to be working, but it's still unstable for some reason.
Any advice would be appreciated, thnx.
