    Not sure if this is "hardware" or "Vista" related, mods please move if you think appropriate:
    I have just upgarded my kit to:

    Abit ip35 Pro
    Q6600
    8800 gts (640)
    2 g pc2 8500

    More importantly (I guess) I have made the move to Vista 64, which is new ground for me, so please forgive any dumb questions I may be asking..

    Anyway - built pc using my 2xraptors (64 stripe) Raid_0 - they seem to be much more noisy now, but thats a different story.

    Problem I have is that I can use Vista and play games. I have a few minor issues, but mainly fine. I can run 3dmark05 and get a decent(ish) score. Can't seem to install 06, but again, another story.

    But when I try to stress test - I get a lock up fairly quickly. Using Orthos - a few minutes and it goes, yet cpu temp is still no higher than 60-65. Bios doesn't shut down until 75.....

    I have to button the box. I have done no overclocking at all. I was stress testing to see stability before I even thought about that.

    Any ideas what could be casuing this?

    Many thanks
