I am having the strangest of issues with this board! I wonder if someone can help me with it?? Basically in all stress tests my PC is totally stable with the config in my sig. However, I am having issues whereby i get a total reboot during boot. Its like the hard drive just cuts off and then the machine reboots with no BSOD. No change of settings has been able to resolve this random but frequent reboot during boot issue (except when not overclocked)

Anyway, I have realised that by having another hard drive connected via the external eSata plate, then the issue goes away. The hard drive is just an internal Maxtor 6V080E0 80gb connected via the external plate and is lying on the floor.

Now im wondering if this is a hard drive issue, or whether it is an 'earthing' issue?? I have three Samsung F1 drives, maybe these could be the problem and I need to have a Maxtor hard drive plugged in as well for the system to boot OK? Or I was thinking that maybe by having the Maxtor on the floor outside my case, it is providing an 'earth' to the PC, and I have earthing problems inside my case? What do you guys think? Can anyone shed a bit of light on this?

Is anyone running this board with only Samsung F1 drives?
