I have put together a Windows XP SP1a system using the P4800C-E board.
I have 2 80GB harddrives installed in it (ATA133). Everything seems to
work ok except for a very ANNOYING problem:

Every now and then when I copy large files from one harddrive to the
other (4GB+) the system reboots without warning. This is very annoying
considering that all do is video editing and 4GB files are very very
common.

The problem also happens when i'm copying large directories between
the harddrives (the directory has 4GB+ worth of files)

Both Harddrives worked flawlessly in the previous system.

Any ideas?

If the hard drives have temperature reporting, you can use
something like speedfan (http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php)
to monitor their temperature while copying the 4G data to see
if the temperature gets too high.
