buying a faster (used) replacement.

nothin. Although frequently changing out hard drives, hadn't changed
harddrives or anything for couple months before it died... Had a bad
RAM stick I changed out about a year ago. >> Stay informed about: Is my ABIT BH6 DEAD? Can it be SAVED? HOW? |

Inspect capacitors. If bulging or leaking, that is likely the problem.
Unplug all but bh6, cpu, mem.
Reseat/Rotate/swap memory modules.
Swap video cards.
Etc, etc.
