Well, I started out with an Abit IS-10 mobo and it uses the Intel 865 chipset but there were compatibility issues with the Raid controller card so it is specific mobos you have to look at and not just the chipset. Thanks for the inputs everyone.
I purchased an Alienware 51m about a year ago and was wondering if there were others out there with the same issues. The latch that keeps the case closed broke off because it is cheap plastic unlike others that are metal. The floppy drive has a hard time ejecting the disks, the ctrl keys do...

If you bought the motherboard, ram and cpu locally then I would recommend bringing them in so they can test them, sounds like one of them is faulty. Tough to say which is the bad component when it is locking up so early.
Since it is locking up so early there are only a couple things that it could be. Motherboard or ram. The ram shows up on the mobo compatibility so the problem is either a bad stick of ram or a bad motherboard. Does it lock up in the same exact spot every time? If so I would look at the...
Is there a problem with Intel motherboards, specifically the Intel 865GBFL, and APacer Ram. I am trying to use Hyperthreading and getting lock-ups. The Ram is ddr 400 2 sticks of 256MB. When I do a ram test, Memtest86, everything checks out fine. I think it might have something to do with...
