Hi folks!
Help needed from those more qualified than myself!

Spec as follows:
ASRock K7VM2 Ver2
Duron 1300
256Mb PC2100 DDR RAM
80Gb Maxtor
Liteon 48x24x48
350W PSU
Win XP Home

I built this PC about 6 months ago, and since then it has had intermittant BSOD's, and random freezes with no particular error messages.
Having just got round to trying to sort it, loading SANDRA 2004, I discover the following:
Board Temp: 61.0 Deg C
CPU Temp 40 Deg C CPU Fan Speed 4219rpm
CPU voltage 1.86v CPU Core Power 62W

As you can see the Board Temp seems massively high!!!
I have changed the PSU, but it makes very little difference.
Is there anything else I can do before I replace the mobo, as I'm stuck for ideas? BTW the CPU FSB is set to 100Mhz.

Cheers & thanks for any response,
Karen

What you need to do is move some air throught the case! A fan in the front blowing in and a fan in back blowing out would be good.

Also be sure that your video card has a working fan.

I already have 2 fans + PSU fan with through flow and the graphics is onboard!
What should the mobo temp be roughly?
I am wondering if it's a faulty mobo?

The motherboard temp should be between 30 and 40°C. Are you sure you aren't reading them backward? I could see the CPU temp being 60°C.

Nope!
Definately the right way round. By all accounts it shouldn't be working at all!!
Cheers
