the thing is i overclocked without realizing the speed of the bus speed of the pc2100 stick (266, i overclocked so it was running at 333, the pc2700 speed). I'm somewhat of a newbie when it comes to overclocking, which can be quite dangerous as I've heard and recently found out..

well i took out the pc2100 ram and so far so good. Nothing's crashed with bittorrent for a couple days now. I haven't tried war3 still so i'm not sure about that. I haven't tried taking the pc2700 out and using just the pc2100 yet, but, well..since the problems are gone with the pc2100 out...

Is it possible to ruin a stick of ram by overclocking past it's intended Mhz speed? I think one of the first things i did (although forgot if it was THE first), was to try to overclock it to 2ghz (166 x 12.5). Having a 512mb pc2100 266Mhz stick of ram, and also a 512mb pc2700 333Mhz stick of...

Hey all..I just replaced my old AthlonXP 1600+ with a T-bred B AthlonXP 1700+, and suddenly I'm having some problems. At default speeds, warcraft3 seems to crash after a short while, and when overclocked (2ghz, 166x12.5), it also crashes but with the addition of flickering graphics. Now...

I thought the thoroughbreds were unlocked by default? if you're asking was I able to overclock it with my mobo, then yea I'm able to hit 2ghz at default voltage with a temp of around 35 C at idle, haven't tried any higher. And I seem to be having a problem with warcraft 3 running with it, at...

Hey guys...I've got a question about flashing the motherboard to a newer version (with new RAID version included) I have an Abit KR7a-RAID board and I just flashed my mobo to the newest BIOS version, which also included an update to the RAID version (2.31 to 2.32) Now it says that it's...

hmm...well after i put it in today the bios shows it up as "Unknown CPU Type", and I just set it as 1700+ for now so it's "Unknown CPU Type 1700+", and it's asking me for replace an invalid system disk (there's nothing in any of my drives), but when I press any key it just boots into windows...
