Go purchase a big, copper (Read: Not aluminum.... Copper is
approximately 40% more efficient than aluminum) heat sink that has at
least a 4500 rpm fan attached to it and your problems will disappear.
Temperatures over 118 Fahrenheit inject chipset Gremlins into  AMD
powered systems. 

VIA chipsets are good products... Most of the complaints you see on the
internet involving VIA chipsets are installed in systems running AMD
processors that have inadequate cooling systems attached to them. It's
funny... You read the posts and they all say the same thing: "My system
is unstable because of the VIA chip set thats in it. I know it's not the
AMD processor overheating because I checked the CPU core temprature and
it was a cool 129 Fahrenheit...................."
