New motherboard installed - now getting lockup

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.perform_maintain (More info?)

I had to replace my motherboard. Lately, I'm getting intermittant lockups.
Some times it happens in games, other times in windows apps. At times, it
occurs after a period of inactivity.

I have an ATI radeon 9800 pro, ABIT NF7, AMD 1800+

Can anyone suggest some things to look at in order to resolve these
FRUSTRATING events?

Here's the text from the Application event:

The COM+ Event System detected a bad return code during its internal
processing. HRESULT was 8007041F from line 44 of
d:\qxp_slp\com\com1x\src\events\tier1\eventsystemobj.cpp. Please contact
Microsoft Product Support Services to report this error.

Here's the text from one of four System events:

DCOM got error "The service database is locked. " attempting to start the
service netman with arguments "" in order to run the server:
{BA126AE5-2166-11D1-B1D0-00805FC1270E}

Did you update the drivers ???

You can check the devices and drivers like this:

Did you perform a Repair Installation after the motherboard change?

Hate to revive an old topic, but I'm having the same problems after installing an evga NF4 SLI, Smartpower 2.0 500w PSU, and an X1800xt. Was working fine with my old parts which was an Abit AV8, some 420w PSU, and a 6800gt.

Still can't find the solution to this random crashing that happens primarily in games but has happened once on the desktop. Definitely not a heating issue, unless the PSU is overheating or my mobo temps aren't acceptable. One mobo sensor says 37 the other says 42, so I don't think it's that.

Any knowledge regarding this?
