I had the same issue, same MOBO and same system (almost the same, |
| 2 |
instead of the sempron I had an athlon xp), the heatsink was working |
| 3 |
fine, it kept locking for a while, then one day as you described it |
| 4 |
refused to boot, as I forced it, it became unstable, finally not |
| 5 |
booting anymore. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I took it to the guy I got it from and he said part of the bus for the |
| 8 |
MOBO was fried, due to high temperatures, not in the processor, but at |
| 9 |
the chipset, that caused the BIOS to failure, finally crushing the |
| 10 |
entire system, reflashing BIOS did not solve it. Now I'm looking for a |
| 11 |
new motherboard as I write this from my notebook. Check the whole sys |
| 12 |
temperature. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
I have been running into problems with this kind of MOBO and |
| 15 |
processor, its the second fried mobo in 3 months, I changed the power |
| 16 |
supply, changed memory, drives, everything. So, my advice, cool your |
| 17 |
system... |

Again, that's my own experience and I just write this because you |
| 20 |
described exactly what happened to me last week. |
