    Well, I'll tell you something that may or may not help; I had the M4N78 ( 1st and 2nd revisions ) in m-atx flavour; neither of them liked a reasonably high-end cpu, both would 'hang' for no reason and totally at random ( often when trying to watch videos or anything which required a bit of cpu power ).

    Do you really only have a 1.2 & 2.9GB HDDs, or should that be TBs?..

    Wouldn't an AM2 motherboard bottleneck a Pehnom 2? Also, IDE hard drives?

    I'm no expert here, but I believe he's referring to hard drives 1 and 2.

    that hardware should be fine.

    Could you try and give a better explanation of the problem. You say it seems to hang? what are you doing when it hangs? does it recover?
