JK> I recently did a major upgrade to my computer replacing the mobo, ram,
JK> processor, and graphics card. Since then I have had nothing but problems.

Welcome to the club! Last year I got Asus A7N8X and for the first few days my
computer was completely unusable. Pretty much nothing was working out of the
box (Slackware 9.0), the disk transfer was extremely low, and the entire
system was frequently crashing.

The first step was to enable DMA, but it looks that you're already there. My
hdparm -t -T numbers are slightly lower than yours.

Now you have to focus in the kernel. Forget about GUI and play with the kernel
options. Recompile a few times. Make sure you're building an Athlon kernel.
Enable nVidia IDE support. I can e-mail you my kernel config, if you're
interested. It's for 2.4.22. If you're using the 2.4 kernel, you need at least
version 2.4.22. I have no experience with 2.6. Perhaps it has better nForce
support?

That's my $0.02. Good luck!
