Hey guys. I think it's definately a CPU issue. I do have the heatsink that came with the processor installed and my bios settings are what they should be set at (i'm running at 2 GhZ like I should be). Here's something to consider: When I first installed my cpu and heatsink I booted up once. I had some problems soon after and removed my heatsink from the cpu, thus breaking the bond between the two. In putting it back on, there was only a little bit of that heatsink grease left on the CPU and it might not have been enough to keep it properly cooled. I've been worried about it since then because it is still like that. Do you guys think this is my problem?
