The other is a larger chip, roughly 1.5in square, with the text

         OPTi
        Viper
        82C557
   Tawain 951215TE

This is your problem - Not all chipsets are created
equal - and not all motherboards are created equal.

Just because a motherboard has a certain spec - does
not mean that it can reliably meet that spec.

When you bought the computer you should have done 
enough studies to determine what motherboard and
peripheral cards you were willing to take a chance
on - or knew enough about to know you would not
have a problem.

I would call TriGem and request that they swap out
the motherboard for another brand.
