The only reason I ask, is that my system only is unstable every once in a while. I just get the classic stuff listed in the OP about how some days it doesn't crash or hang. Some days it does it with 5 minutes. Some days it takes about 2 hours before the system seizes.

Some times the system BSOD's, sometimes it just locks up.

So I didn't know if the old corruption from previous BIOS is the culprit for this.

One crash I had a few days ago, was rather weird. It took 3 power cycles just to get past the POST, then it got to Windows and everything was normal again.
Changing the Raptors to Velociraptors got rid of all my freezing problems at 450FSB. I don't think Raptors like this chipset (or vice versa!).
