I wasn't able to get this thing working, so I tried cpuburn and seti@home
instead. Both ran my cpu up to around 70 degrees C, and everything was still
working perfectly.
All fans were spinning nicely along, including the vidcard fan.
After this, I let things cool down, ran winex+diablo2 and the system crashed
in under 20 minutes.
To make sure it wasn't hardware related I ran 3dMark 2003 under windows and
well... it resulted in a blue screen after 10 minutes of running this quite
intensive test. So I suppose something is wrong with my AGP card.
Strange thing is that I actually get crashes, and not video problems as I
would expect...
I've already tried turning of AGP Fast Writes, and have tuned down the AGP
write speed from 4x to 2x (lowest I can put it).
Any other ideas?
