Got the same mobo. It is a mis-print in the manual about the cmos jumper. Saw that in a faq, once. Whatever the manual says about the positioning, do the opposite.
Also, the board does support thermal protection using the internal thermal diode in the cpu. If it is set up in the bios to do so, it will shut the board off immediately when it reaches the pre-set shut off temperature. If you aren't using a thermal pad or compound, I would say that is most likely the problem as it doesn't take long for an Athlon, even a Thoroughbred, to heat up.
