You are all probably tired of hearing about this. But I finally gave up on the SBLive and PCI128 and bought a turtle beach Santa cruz. The AMD system seems to run much better now.
Info:850 T Bird
256 MB Kingston PC133
Abit KT7A-R
Voodoo 4500
Kingston KTE110-TX Nic in slot 5
Santa Cruz slot 6
IRQ 5 tio legacy ISA
USB enabled using a MS Internet Keyboard Pro and Intellimouse Optical
Using ATA 100 w/ WD300
3 reformats in 1 day
Win 98SE, Win ME, and Win XP(which I just got yesterday)
All three exhibit lock ups after long periods of inactivity.
Put it on the bench at work, ran fine running Word, Adobe Photoshop, and IE at the same time. But when left to sit locks up.
Wondering if it could be a heat problem. I hear these things are heat monsters. The FHS looks like an adequate one, but My father in law bought it, so I am not sure. I promise to stop posting on this system soon. I might throw it in front of a truck.
