I've had 4 in the space of a 2 weeks :) Turns out the PSU was toasted
and was blowing each of the newly RMA'd boards up. Lesson learnt pay
some money for a decent PSU because I've never lost a board after
investing in a decent one.

        slightly off the motherboard branch: just checked my system info, and 
it now says I have 1.9GB memory instead of 2! Definitely sending it back now...

        

        

        

        From what you have put on pastebin the problem seems to be with the 
first half of the second core(CPU3), which  its throwing a fit about, also this 
cron job:
Apr 17 13:09:01 farran-desktop /USR/SBIN/CRON[15286]: (root) CMD (  [ -d 
/var/lib/php5 ] && find /var/lib/php5/ -type f -cmin 
+$(/usr/lib/php5/maxlifetime) -print0 | xargs -r -0 rm)

it does'nt seem to like.

okay... that's interesting. Why would that be? Can it be fixed or do I need to 
RMA it or something?



Cheers







With the way the an MB connects to the processor, I'd point to the MB before 
anything else.
