Since Praedor seems to be having many weird problems as posted on the list, I'm thinking it might be a power supply and/or temperature problem. The fact that he gets things to work, and then they die later would indicate a heat problem. I believe that MSI motherboard only has a minimal heatsink with no fan on the Northbridge. I have the Ultra 2, and mine doesn't have a fan, and the temps do get what I consider too high for the chipset- around 38C. I do have two case fans drawing in outside air, and a good cpu heatsink fan on my Athlon 1700+ XP T-bred B.
Praedor- can you post what type of cooling you have on the cpu, case, and Northbridge, and type of power supply, and temps, if you have lmsensors working? Those Athlon 1.1GB chips do run very hot- much hotter than the XP's. I'm not saying this is the main cause of your problems, but it is something to consider if you do in fact have inadequate cooling.
