since I got my GA-7DXR, I've not been able to reset my system w/out pushing the reset button. When the first board ultimately failed, I got it RMA'd and installed the new one. Same problem. I used 2 diff. geforces, 2 psus, 2 nics, and 2 sound cards. No dice.
Just now, I changed a dip switch on the mobo, and upped the AGP voltage from 1.5 to 1.6. Works like a charm. No tech I've spoken with recommended this, so I thought I'd post the fix here...
