I've had my FX-55 and X850XT PE for about 2 days now and I've had nothing but problems with it. Games such as Call of Duty 2, Half-Life 2 and Quake 4 just keep randomly crashing either to the desktop with no error, crash with an error or lock the entire system up with a screeching noise coming from my speakers.
One thing I think may have caused this problem is the faulty IDE cable that was used to install Windows 2000 Pro, but I've not seen anything in the event log about currupt files (and Windows it's self doesn't seem to have a problem).
My PC spec:
AMD FX-55 ClawHammer
2GB Kingston Value PC3200 RAM (4x 512MB)
ATI Radeon X850XT PE AGP
DFI LANParty UT nForce3 Ultra-D Motherboard
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
I've ran:
memtest - 100% Passed
Folding@Home - ran for many hours and completed many WUs
3DMark03/05 many times, including ATI Tool's Artifact Finder
Prime95 which I'm running again over night
Any ideas? I'm about to stick my P4 back in since I cannot use a system that is this unstable at the LAN I'm going to this weekend
