I got a PCCHIPS MB M863G V1.5 SiS741GX
I sold it to a friend of mine setup with amd 1900 512 ram onboard everything
Within about 2days of them running it, they were playing a game, it shutoff, smelt burnt, turned it on an hour or so later, was working fine, then they went to rip a cd, shuts off again, wouldn't power back on, light would flicker for a second and then go off, so i took the powersupply from my PC and tried it, it comes on, so i go ahead and order a power supply, i took the one i tested it with from my pc and stuck it in there.
So i'm trying to figure out why it burned up to begin with, so i installed a MB temp/volt reader, temps are fine
Voltages are nuts, Fishguy made a post with same MB, simular problem

CPU consistant at 46 C
CORE 0 1.5v
CORE 1 2.54v (2.5v CPU lowest measured at 2.52v)
+3.3 3.36v
+5.00 4.20
+12.00 8.07 (WOA something wrong here?)
-12.00 -7.74 (average -6.73 over an hour)
-5.00 0 (something is amiss)

these are my readings from ITE Smart Gaurdian, i also used MBProbe with same readings about
VCORE - 1.7
VCC 2.5 - 2.43
VCC3 - 1.45 (lower than threshold & highlighted red)
VCC - 5.05
+12 - 13.69 (red)
SB3V - 1.6/2.46 (red)
-12V - Normally around 6 drops to 2.0 and .63 constantly (red)
SB5V - 4.73
I am pretty sure it isn't the PSU but the MB instead, but if those readings are correct, shouldn't the computer be smoking?
I went into the bios to get the temps, it doesn't show them all
VCore 1.7
VCC2.5 - 2.43
VDDQ - 1.4 (same as vcc3 i'm guessing)
VCC5V - 5.08
SB3V - 3.4
RPMS - 4000
CPU @ 50C
SYS TEMP @ 32 C
i have 1 dvdburner, 1 hd in the computer
and a few fans, 1 w/ lights on it.
