Hi and thanks a MILLION for your response. I have an ASUS P4PE mainboard (i845 chipset)
that would go into self-reboot every single time I ran the UT2003 benchmark. Your
response helped me in diagnosing the problem.
Believe it or not, my system went from completely unstable (3 min to 3 hour interval)
to absolute stability after a simple update of the Intel INF file. Thanks again.
