I have a BP6 w/a pair of C300A's, oc'd to 467. I used to have lockup
problems, until I greased/fanned the BX chipset. See:
http://www.bp6.com/bx/
Ever since, it's been absolutely *rock solid*. Not a single crash or
lockup. I'm using a 40mm fan from www.3dfxcool.com. I'm running RH 6.1,
2.2.13, the uniform-ide patches to support the HPT366, even the reiserfs
patches. Rock solid. Smoking fast too. :) Is it possible you just have
one or more flaky CPUs? I tried some 366's in my BP6, one went right up to
550 with no trouble at all, the other wouldn't get past an 83Mhz FSB, even
with turning the voltage up to 2.2.

NJ is absolutely stable here. Not so much as a single hiccup.
