news:e1iEPDBqIHA.5096@xxxxxxMy system locks up all the time, but I am running an AMD Quadcore Phenom -Black edition with a MSI K9A2 Platinum MotherBoard. I have a daily freeze up with Vista in both x64 & x32 OS versions. I still have yet to figure out what is the deal with all that. My system has froze during shutdown, on the net, while gaming, running Excel, while nothing is running (just the desktop stuff), etc. However, when it isn't freezing, it runs great. Everything falls under normal parameters.
So does yours freeze only while surfing the internet?
Sounds like you lack the proper cooling.
I have a Thermatake water cooling system and the AMD monitoring program says I am well within my safe operating perameters. Runs at an average of 35° C, it has frozen during start up after being shut down all night, freezes after running idle on the desktop, etc.
