BSOD Question

[kingbob]

Okay, whenever I push my FSB to 152MHz and try to boot up I get a BSOD that says "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" what does this mean and how can I get by it? Thanks all

Don't overclock...

I was just asking a question, and I can do whatever I want to with my computer.

I think he meant you're overclocking too much. There's a ms knowledgebase article that lists all the causes of this error, but hard overclocking isn't one of them.

Not overclock as much???

I got the same message when I tried to go over 166 FSB.

Sorry to say it but I think you're going to have to settle for less than 152 FSB

LOL! yeah, I guess you can do whatever you want to your computer. You can overclock it like that and get this error when you start up and have all sorts of crashes and cool stuff...you could also hit it with a sledge hammer if you really wanted to. Or here's a better idea, if you want your computer to "get past this" don't overclock it this much.

I got the same error when I tried to overclock my K6-III+ FSB. Also, I got that error when I tried to overclock my RAM.

Raise the core voltage.

Yes, I knew you would all tell me that, but I was wondering what the error meant. And thank you John for the response, I tried that and with the VCORE at 1.75 I can get to 149 stable.
