A7N8X-E Deluxe, Athlon 3000MHz, 2 x Twinmos 512MB 400 DDR memory

About 50% of the time, and usually from a full power up from cold, that
dreadful women keeps saying "system failed due to overclocking" and yet
everything is set at default, no overclocking. It then boots up OK, so it's
just an annoyance - I hope.

Does anyone else get this, does anyone know why?

That woman(and men?) just can't help but lie once in a while, can she!?!
Seriously, see "Erik"s" post, and replies, about 15 down below yours. It
may give you some ideas. s
