When the problem occured, the room temperatures were very high (about 40°C and some more), in recent i already had problems at high temperatures with the mainboard's chipset (for example POST errors, BIOS data deleted, BIOS not loading or even such system freezes), the chipset is not actively cooled... now at about 22°C room temperature the system works fine... i would never buy an elitegroup motherboard again...
Check out what Elite says about operating temperature. +40C is quite high, I'm not surprised at all that you've been having problems. With a room-temperature that high, many components will have serious problems getting rid of their own heat, and will very likely be exceeding their normal operating temperature range. /Per Jessen, Zürich
