Few things I'd check, I'm not familiar with Epox motherboards, but I'd check all your CPU settings again, especially the Voltage Jumper. If it's a jumperless motherboard I'd be dumping it PDQ. Also, check your memory, just because it says it's 100MHZ compatible, dosen't mean it is really. Very few memory manufacturers test's actually put any kind of load on the chip! They just test how fast the memory goes, and that what I/O it does is the same coming as it is going. Even if it failed speed tests, a lot of manufacturers sell off the rejects barrel to be reclaimed, but gets packaged as working memory!
