Blew out all dust (the motherboard arrived brand new yesterday, so probably not necessary), still the same probs. After heavy IO the card dies. I plugged one of the cards back in the old motherboard and installed a backup vdr, no probs at all with that card. Everything else on the new mainboard works like a charm, so I doubt the board is broken. Still looking for any other hints, Matthias
