Not my experience Dan.

I've used my BP6 + HPT366 for a while now and I haven't had on lockup.
No corruption either.

Presently I use 2.4.0-test11-p4 and I have been following the 2.3.* kernel
since the day I got the BP6.

I have two Celeron 500 which are *not* o/c.
I have seti@home running on this box 24/7.
I use the latest BIOS.

I guess I'm lucky *grin*
