msi k7t266 pro 2 lockups in directx games

before i get a new board i wanted to run this by you all.

i'm locking up at random points in Direct X games- Hight Heat 2004 and EA MVP Baseball 2003 (used to in Morrowind as well)

ive tried VIA drivers 4.38 up to 4.46. i'm using bios 3.6 on the board. i tried direct x 8.1 and 9, default settings on the radeon and catalyst drivers 2.5, 3.0 and 3.1, removed the SBLive card and in the BIOS tried default settings, high performance settings and almost everthing in between.

anyone seen this? i'm ok in Win XP on everything else. my dual boot to win98 does the same thing.

Everything is fine when i switch the FSB to 100 however. i think its a BIOS setting. i think i need some changes in memory or fsb and multiplier settings -but- i get post errors on my changes- have not tried vcore changes.

temps are ok. 350W PS should hold my 2HD, 2 CD's, floppy, Radeon 3 fans??...maybe not?

anyway 100fsb everything is fine

Have you tried swapping out video cards to see if it is a video problem?
