system is stable as a rock during boot up and has up till now, not crashed. prime fails at 251, but I do not get bsod or a random reboot. well, all I know is enermax makes quality psu's that's for sure. this 3 year old 350watter STILL has life left.

Darn, kinda wished it was that easy :) but, i'm pretty happy with a 25% overclock. and it's prime stable with relatively low temps. thanks for the help guys.

I've actually tried the 312x8=2.5, w/ a mem divider of 3:2, but in that case it doesn't even POST, hangs in the BIOS. I haven't tried a 9x multiplier because my MB doens't support any other dividers aside from 5:4, 3:2, and I can't get my memory past 220 with 2.9v. Is it strange that at 250...

Had a problem with XP installation as well. Could be a number of things, your win xp CD, or any part of your hardware. You might want to check our this thread, you may find some answers: http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?catid=32&threadid=1336055&enterthread=y you might want...

Hey guys, after two weeks of playing around, I finally fixed the problem. It was actually the PCI ethernet card on my motherboard that had gone bad. I discovered this when I loaded win2000, and any attempt to enable/disable the network card caused the system to crash. I then disabled the...

I assume that if 98 detected my hardware correctly, then that hardware itself is OK right?

On a whim I decided to try and install windows 98. And wha la, 98 installed, with a couple hitches, but I managed to boot up and click around the desktop. The only issue was win98 could not locate proper drivers for my newer hardware, but it still identified and searched for drivers for my video...

Are you saying that i might fry my mobo? alright, i'll find a PCI video card to try it out with. thanks for the warning.

hey i used to have that same video card! i'll see if I can scavenge it and plug it in... i actually think i have an old TNT that might work. ok, so tonight i'm going to switch out my Video, IDE cable, and use my other dvd-rom, any other suggestions?

I can try the IDE cable idea, and I'll disconnect my other drive when i'm using just one. I'll try and get hold of another copy of XP... maybe a REAL one, and see what happens. my power supply is a enermax 350W (EG365P-VE(FM)). come to think of it, that's not THAT great, you're saying it could...

Yeah, I'm going to try my dvd drive tonight. it's such a pain waiting to go home from work to fix this thing. I should probably just take a day off and nurse my comp back to health. Could it be my geforce 4 ti4200? I haven't tried swapping that out to see what would happen. I actually had that...

my case is open and all fans are going, and CPU read temps look OK, I set the clock back to stock so i don't think it's the heat. My harddrives are getting plenty of air flow too. I used to be able to install xp using one of the CD's just fine. I remember I reformatted 2 or 3 times before...

I've only tried my dvd drive once before (instead of my cdr/w), but that was with only one CD, I'll try and use the other CD this time with my dvd drive.

OK, i set the clock speed and vcore voltage back to stock, 1.5v, and 1.6ghz, and it is still not responding. I restarted like 4 times and it continues to hang in the same place. Holy crap i think i'm going to lose it soon... WTF is going ON???????
