FIC PA-2013 ver 2.0 E0036 Bios JI1533 I have had similar problems while setting up this board the best fix I have found is to run the VIA driver install and bus master on first boot with (WIN98SE)from the FIC disk Let it reboot
then changed the display settings for my video card started out with RIVA 128ZX worked great then games required more than 8MG video so I went with Voodoo 3500tv (was sent new cd and cables next day air)just installed it and run setup for the new card and it's been running great Past 3mons.
I don't know if this helps but I'm only running AMD K6-2 350 chip I do want to move up to k6-3 450mhz both AMD and FIC say the board is certified to run this chip. the bus is set at 100mhz,128MB PC-100 generic Ram..
The only fix I have found for system reboots at shut down is to go into bios and set to 4 sec. delay as of today I have found MS has a patch for this problem but only states certain M/B's but didn't list them..
This board has been most relable to me only complaint is that it won't run a ATA/66 hard drive limited to ATA/33 but PROMISE has come out with a Multi-controller W/own bios to work around this. Haven't heard of it or read anything about it yet. As with anything else before installing or setting up a new system go to the web and get the updated drivers fisrt then install it I've used this thinking since March99 and haven't had any problems.. last thing scratchy sound make sure your video and sound cards are seatted in had this on another PC opened it up and it was right there... gold strip exposed alcohol and a q-tip fix for $35.00 On Site repair not bad for ten minutes work
