Howdy y'all,
I think I might of fixed my BP6 troubles. If you remember my case diagram
I drew, I had a fan at the top of the case sucking air in. I moved that
fan to the bottom of the case and its now sucking in air and circulating
it amongst the various cards I have plugged in. The two CPUs and BX chip
are running about the same temperature but my TNT2 is seemingly a lot
cooler. And there is where the freeze part comes in -- there're not
happening anymore. I've had this box up for two days running two
seti@home and intense disk activity almost the whole time and nothing.
Nada. Stable, 39C for CPUs and 35C for the motherboard. I was hesitant
to post anything before because I thought I'd jinx myself :).
So... I don't know what to expect now. Things seem to be working out well
and stable. For the hell of it I overclocked the CPUs to 500mhz and
everything ran well except I got a lot of
solvent kernel: APIC error interrupt on CPU#0, should never happen.
solvent kernel: APIC error interrupt on CPU#1, should never happen.
Being the scaredy-cat I am, I backed it down to 450mhz and things are
running strong. I'll probably bring them both back down to the original
400mhz after the novelty factor wears off.
