I have a bp6 with two 366 clocked to 550, and had lots of lockup problems, It seemed that the second pci slot (down from the AGP) was alomost unuasble. If I put one of my network cards in there I would get 19000 mil second access times move to another slot and I would get 10 mil sec. also my adaptec 2940 would get alot of scsi errors in this same slot. after putting one card in at a time and testing.. I have everything working great under linux. AGP- Viper V770 pci 1- adaptec 2940uw pci 2-Hauppauge wintv card ( this was the problem slot) pci 3-Intel etherexpress pro 10/100 pci 4-Intel etherexpress pro 10/100 pci/isa shared 5-awe 64 sound card isa 6-usr v90 modem and the temp of the processors is around 113 F It really helped to use thermal paste on the heat sinks!!
