I've heard the horror stories of malfunction, trim sucking, etc... I think they
are GREAT

That one, and the larger, faster, 160GB version, are the only ones I'd
consider buying right now. I've seen a truly shocking number of OCZ Vertex
(Indilinx-based) drives fail in various ways, and while the new Sandforce
controller in the Vertex 2 and others looks really impressive, being bitten

You can't go wrong with intel

Thane,
Yes. This one is interesting. I follow this thread.
But, you have many more m/b's to test with than I. Still this one is
most odd.. ?
I do so wish I was a BIOS-maven but I am not. I suffer with it on each
new tech m/b I buy.
I would suspect that the cpu VR's on the m/b have taken

Scoobydo,
If I dig in by bone pile I could offer you a brand new and
only use once, spare for your current P2-333. I bought mine because it
had some special S-Spec #. If interested, I can share critical numbers.
Lopaka speaks true. I personally have had 3 cpu's give up the ghost at

The first cpu I've seen go bad was a 100MHz 486 cpu (if I remember correctly)
and the cache went bad for no apparent reason. If you disabled the cache the
box worked fine albeit very slow. The second was a pentium 233 mmx and problem
was identicle to the prior one. I had one celeron 300A go dea
Clearly you have more experience than me but you did say gone bad because
of overheating right? Most components I've had go bad did so for no
apparent reason. They just failed at some point. I've never seen a CPU do
that and even old socket 462 Athlon XP's shut down when over heated saving
I've seen at least 5-6 CPU's go bad. Sometimes it's just the cache memory and
sometimes the processor. Old athlons would fry pretty quick if the CPU fan goes
bad often just within a few minutes. I've probably built or repaired 500+
systems just as a hobbyist. I used to average 3-4 full systems a
If you've had experience of several bad CPU's then you must be a system
builder with hundreds of builds under your belt. I'm just a hobbyist and
have only built 20 or so boxes over the years and I've never even heard of
anyone having a CPU go bad until you said it. Bad mobo's, PSU's,

Trying that right now.
Do the CPU's expect different voltages that the bad board isn't
supplying correctly?
Switch power supply on the one it doesn't boot with and test?
Good idea. I'll try that.
