Gigabyte GA-7VAX-A ~ VCC pins ( 4 6 19 20 ) in both power supply and mother board socket are burning out / burnt out ... this board has been stable up till this point. I've looked for possible shorts and not been able to find any. this board in the past had extra fan runing off it to cope with the aussie heat ... now i'm living in a cooler country,I've no extra fan drawing from the board.. So i've ruled out the ,burnt out pins ,being from over loaded (mind you I might be wrong) ... these VCC pins are they to do with voltage control ? if I should test them hoiw should I go about it ? any suggestions ..

nonsmoke.exe patch won't help in this problem either :D

My thanks in Advance

Are you overclocking anything? Wrong voltages might do it.

P.S. Where did you get your name? I read it in "Krondor: The Betrayal".
