"The system has experienced boot failures because of overclocking or...

Sounds like the PSU can't cope with the load and everytime it shuts down, the bios setting is set by default to reboot.
Which PSU do you have?

sounds like a MB problem to me.

Yeah, it has to be this Gigabyte motherboard because I was on my 9800 GX2 last night before I started to upgrade to my new build.
