If this is an FIC SD-11 board, it should be known that this board is a very picky one when it comes to voltages - FIC released this board in a hurry when it was still a prototype, leaving many things in error on this board. One thing was the voltage regulators. There are very few on this board compared to other Athlon boards (including other FIC models) and this can make for rather dirty voltages being supplied to your CPU when combined with a culprit PS. However, 2 days is kind of a long time for these problems to arise. There's just too much crap that happens these days to rule it out though.
