I need some help here, last night I installed and cBo version of the celeron 566 and tried to overclock it to 100 mhz buss speed. I updated the bios to the latest and last version that recognizes the 566 and set the cpu setup in the bios to 8.5 x 100 mhz, 1/3 pci and 2/3 agp. I set the voltage to 1.70 and set the 'hold on error' feature to on. When I rebooted the computer it beeps once and will not boot at all. I then have to shut the off and wait a couple of minutes before the computer will start up again. When I set the cpu at 566/66 it works perfectly. Is there any way I can flash the bios back to the previuos version? If I try this will it disable the chip making the computer non operational? Am I missing something in the bios setup? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Some further info, under the old bios, I was able to get the computer to boot to the windows screenat 100 mhz buss, but it would freeze. This was at 1.6 volts. I should have tried a higher voltage but instead flashed the latest bios to the motherboard which caused the problems with getting the 566 to work at 100 mhz speed. Can I flash an older version of the bios over the current one or will this cause a failure of some kind?
