just thought i would add my two cents... i run an abit bp6 dual machine. it is very stable now that i removed my piece of @#$$% HP cd burner. but, while i was fighting with it, i had some similar weird symptoms you mention, like if i edited the bios settings, generally the machine would hang after save and exit. needing a power reset. every once in awhile, if i have had it turned off (doesn't happen often), when i start it up by power on, it won't boot until i give it a reset then away it goes.
i think this is specific to this mb, but something related to the video card not initialising correctly. things for you to check: are you running the most current revision of the bios? your power supply is stable and delivering the correct voltages? what size of supply are you running? i too have heard of the AMD chips being somewhat hungry and sensitive to dirty power. i know i haven't helped much other than i feel for you brother! been there, done that. made me crazy for awhile too. good luck! :-) moose.
