Try to see if you can upgrade your bios to latest version - we had similar
problem with Dual PIII 500 Intel board. Also try to run test programs that
you can get/download for your board.

|                  New packages that correct a vulnerability in the kernels
|                  that shipped with Red Hat Linux 6.0 are now
|                  available. When exploited this vulnerability allows

|                  Thanks to Piotr Wilkin for reporting the problem and to
|                  Alan Cox for the fix. 
|
|                  Red Hat Software recommends that all users with
|                  networked machines upgrade to this release.
