I am using a abit kt7 raid mobo with a amd t-bird 950@1050 10.5x100 and runs fine as can be n/p. what i am having issues with is when i try to go higher at the above i am using default bolt yet. if i try to goto 102fsb it boots into windows fine try to run 3dmark or other 3d app and it kicks me back to desktop after 5-10 minutes. i have tried increasing the core did not help none.

also tried to up the multi from 10.5-11 and posts fine so that would be at 11x100 when it starts to boot from drives into windows rither comes up with screen that replaces my reg with an old version or gives me no warring and reboots.

i am running the latest bios and the 4.29 drivers

have 133 ram not main brand and it is running in turbo mode at 100mhz also tried to drop that down to fast and medium did not make diff.

hope someone can give me some pointers or some help here am new at ocing to high mhz. also don't worry about cooling have the global win fop-38 with artic silver on it runs with it oced to 1050 at 35c idle 41c heavey load for few hours.

when you say you upped the voltage..what was the setting? you can try 1.85, that might help.. also your ram just might not be able to handle the overclock, generic ram is not the best for this sort of thing..the best for the price is crucial pc133, there are plenty of other brands that will let you overclock higher, but crucial is fine because you don't have the 133 chipset, you can't really up the fsb to 140 or 150.. also it could be one of your pci or isa devices, your modem or soundcard might not like the OC, you can try removing them and see what happens..hope this helps:D
