New Asus A8N32-SLI motherboard showing same symptons before previous death.

Captain Log Stardate 5.4.3.6.3.1:

Tried to use Knoppix 3.1 to test internet connecting.

Knoppix 3.1 has NO DHCP support ?

End of log.

Bye, Skybuck.

Captain's log Stardate 2:

I shall test the marvel port with my latest UDP Speed Test 2 which is about to be released, unfortunately now the release will have some delay.

This new version is able to transfer 250 MB/sec through the system.

DreamPC (X2 3800+) has gigabit ports.

Not sure what Powermachine (PIII 450 mhz) has for ports, maybe gigabit as well, it should have at least 100 mbit.

This will be an interesting test because:

1. Both systems will be stressed to the max with udp packets only.

If the systems do not freeze or crash then that would be weird, and could indicate a TCP failure.

End of log.

Bye, Skybuck.

Captain's log Stardate 3:

UDP Speed Testing complete.

Results:

Ethernet Port 8 as identified by the manual is stable. (Bottom port)

Ethernet Port 7 as identified by the manual is unstable (Top port)

A SYSTEM CRASH OCCURD while running UDP Speed Test 2 at full speed with large UDP Packets.

Blue screen of death.

Minidump captured.

Next step:

Analyze minidump.

I feel now safe again to connect my computer to the internet via Port 8.

I shall reconfigure my system to use Port 8 for internet.

Port 7 shall remain unused for now until more details are acquired for this problem.

Speculation: Microsoft's marvel driver might fix this problem ?

Bye, Skybuck.

You forgot to post to the cooking newsgroups.........

BULLSHIT!

From the Knoppix FAQ at

1. Force the DHCP server to generate an IP address to your wireless network connection.

So, idiot, what DHCP server do you think they're talking about?

Notice the Knoppix 5.1.1

See the difference ? ;)

Bye, Skybuck.

So, you're an idiot that uses obsolete software as well?

Same problem as before, the Idiot sitting in front of it

Great we didn't miss you at al. Please remain disconnected from the internet l

Shame

Don't bother

Ever ask yourself WHY you have all these problems? ITS YOU, you shouldn't be even NEAR any P.C

I think of it as a loose nut on the keyboard...........
