Default Total Freeze-up?

I have a foxConn mobo that came with Fox-One monitoring software to watch the temperatures and voltage of my system and it has worked great in the past, but now every time I start the program I get a complete system freeze-up. Now I usually just hit reset when my system freezes and restart, but when I open this program it seems to freeze the mobo instead of the hard drive. I hit the reset button and nothing happens and unless I just pull the plug on the system if just sits there frozen. Is there a way to fix this? I'm sure it isn't good for the system to pull the plug out so often but its the only way...

Don't start the program! Just kidding! What model is the mobo?

I built the system about 4 months ago and the motherboard was brand-spanking-new.

I didn't find that model number but did find 45 CMX. In any case when you built it and got it running, did you register it at foxconn? I looked throught their Q&A but didn't find anything. What have you installed since the last time the program ran without trouble? Another thought, it could be Windows updates. Maybe one of them caused the problem. You could uninstall each update or program one at a time to find out which one caused the problem. Before doing that you could go to FOXCONN Channel Service _ Online Contact and find out if anyone else has reported a similar problem.

This is odd. I used to have that same motherboard and it did the same thing to me.

Sorry about that. It is a 45 CMX. Last time I ran the program was after a fresh copy of XP when I built the system. There could 50 programs that have been run after it. I'll give it a shot!
