We are having random resets troubles with some systems:
MS 6528 V1.0 mobo, CPU P4 1.6 ghz...
Resetings happen when the system is been working for 20 minutes or more.
Everything seems to be ok except that we have realized that the mobo bends
under the pressure of the heatsink. We are not completly sure but you all
know how those bendings affect when the pcb gets heat.
All screws are tightened.
Any way to avoid this?
We are using boxed cpu with and you can read on the top of the fan
