Not to step on Andy's toes, but as a counter point: I built 66 systems based on Via motherboards and chipsets that use PVR-150s and they have been in 24/7 use for over three years and have not experienced any problems like you describe.

That being said, they are purpose built machines and don't do anything else but capture and stream data from the PVR-150 but they are Via CPUs and chipsets and they work just fine.

Thanks to all you have replied!

The best choice seems to be to go for another Mainboard.
But as the DP55KG has an Intel P55 Express Chipset and not a Via Chipset I'm a bit scared of taking again a wrong one...

Is my assumption correct that there won't be big hope that a BIOS Upgrade would solve the problem?
