Hi Guys,
I need your help. My EpoX motherboard sent me a new replacement MoBo. I've assembled
and returned everything and including my old BIOS setting. PC bootup win-xp ok BUT it
will not run continuously because hard drive LED stop. All program just stop
functioning after few minute of running. Cold boot has no effect except to Reset and
always did checking files on all drives. I deleted one Trojan Horse virus on popup
warning BUT couldn't completely scan the whole hard drive because AV program stop also.
I also tried in Safe Mode to clean-up AV, Spyware & Malware BUT not successful because
it stop also. Oh Boy - I give up!

Any tip, help or suggestion will be gladly appreciated.

Is this motherboard identical to the original one? If not (and it
may not be even if it seems to be), you may need to do a repair
installation of Windows.

YES! Ken,
My motherboard is identical to the original one. Every hardware and software are
identical and the same. Hope and Thanks it will not STOP on Repair Install.
Regards, --- Rino.

Check to be absolutely sure that your cpu fan is spinning and that
the heat sink has a good contact with the cpu, with a new layer of
the special heat conducting "grease" between cpu and heat sink

An overheating cpu will run for 20 seconds to a minute or so and
then issue a command to the motherboard to STOP

If they are truly identical, a repair installation shouldn't be
necessary, and won't help. On the other hand it won't hurt
either, and it might be worth trying.

Hi Paul,
CPU Warning Temperature is set at 63C/145F
and I actually did ACPI Shutdown Temp for Disable; or choose from 60C/140F to high of
95C/203F. Thanks!

Yes, I'll do it BUT NOT immediately as other easy remedy can fix it. Repartition? - NO
and Never need it! Reformat - maybe and if Repair Installation failed and that will be
my last resort I'll do if everything suggested here failed. Thanks!
