When I try to overclock, my system can't make it to the Windows screen without reporting an error with the hard drive and then attempting to boot form the cd. I can overclock my processor 1mhz and the problem still happens. Is my hard drive somehow regecting any type of overclock? It's a SATA drive, but I don't have the SATA drivers installed because they came on a floppy disc with my motherboard and I dont have a floppy disc drive. I don't know if that would be affecting it at all?

Pentium 4 2.4b
Abit IC7-Max3
1gb Corsair Xms Pc3200
160gb SATA Seagate Barracuda
 
I thought you needed the drivers for a SATA drive to work but I'm not familiar with SATA. Try using a different slot not all of them have a lock. I don't get why that would matter overclocking 1 mhz though.
 
Unless the SATA is in RAID configuration, I don't think you need the drivers. Windows should install the proper winxp drivers for it automatically. I just installed WinXP on an Nforce4 board with the SATA drive as boot...no drivers were needed.
