I had random harld lockups under gentoo sources.. so I swapped to the gaming sources and that seemed to fix it.
You should note that the sound card support sucks donkey bits under linux for that board, and I heartily recommend the installation of a soundblaster live to replace it.

I have a similar setup. The nforce2 based board is a Leadtek but ob sound and nic like yours. I'm also running an nvidia (gforce4 TI4200) I'm still running gentoo sources 2.4.20r2 (I haven't seen the need to update the kernel) I get no freezes as a rule though it did lock solid a couple of weeks ago just before the vid card quit. (keep an eye on the fan on the vid card) -- Regards, Ernie 100% Microsoft and Intel free
