2 recommendations.

Balance both sides of the output molex plugs from your power supply. It has
at least 2 sides.

If you use some form of power removal from the entire PC while its off (good
idea), energize this for at least 30 seconds before turning on the PC.

1__have the latest drivers Ver 1723
2__Balance both sides of the output molex plugs from your power supply ?
<what does this Mean !!
have had to increase the molex plugs to 7 as there were only 4 on the PSU
 
Firmware is not the same as drivers

IF you're going to reply to me, reply to my post. Not your own post. Then,
I'll consider a reply.

I didnt reply to you, until now, and the contents of my reply (the msg I
replied to) shows that.
If I had replied to you your msg would have been topmost as it is here.
 
You obviously are unaware of the thread hierarchy in usenet. I wasn't
addressing you at all.
