Too many devices competing for too few IRQ's. In Linux there are kernel
options to get around the chipset bugs: e.g. noapic required for VIA
KT400 (and others).

Try disabling the serial and USB ports in the BIOS until you find out if
there is a real fix for your chipset.

I went the Intel route. Too much trouble with non-Intel chipsets for me.
