I have seen a lot of positive feedback but I have had a lot of
problems with mine. What I have is that motherboard plus the AMD
6000+, 2MB of Corsair RAM, one PCIE video card, one PCIX SCSI
adapter. No other add-in cards.

Lately, what happens is one of two things:

1) It POSTS, then I get a warning in BIOS that I need to enter setup
to check hardware settings, which tells me everything is overvoltage.
For example, 12 is 16. I can boot from there where my Asus Probe
program tells me the CPU is running at something like 213 C and the MB
is at something like 200 C. Obviously crazy numbers.

The CPU fan runs about 3200rpm.

2) I get one beep, fans spin up, then it dies. No video output, no
POST.

What I have done to get around that so far is to reseat the video
adapter and the SCSI adapter. Usually reseating the video adapter
does it. My video adapter is a RADEON X1600 (I think). I've tried an
NVIDIA 7300 (which blue screened XP) and get inconsistent results. I
can't rule in or out the video adapter as the source of the problem.

Seems as likely it's an electrical problem on the board. Help?

Make and model of PSU?
