Your hardware is almost the same as mine, except:
- kernel 2.2.14 + ide.2.2.14 2000xxxx (last one before 2.2.15)
- Maxtor 20Gb 7200 UDMA4
- Asus V3400 Riva TNT 16Mb
- HPT firmware boot time shows V1.22
The mobo has been working great since I bought it (comes with NJ
bios, this was OK too)... I can even overclock it to FSB 80MHz
(yes 7 x 80 = 560MHz @2.2V core, temp watchdog at 62 C degrees)
and compile/recompile kernel-source -j3 using while loop + 2 SETI
background for 24 hours heavy burn in test... The room has
no Aircon whatsoever (room ambient ~ 25-28 deg, yeah tropical
climate :), cpu case closed, bios monitor shows ~ 45-48 deg
ambient, both cpu never hit the watchdog limit)...
I suggest you remove your NIC first, run burning test,
if that doesn't help, try replacing/swapping your RAM/HD...
