OK, as some of you know, I recently built a new comp (4 or 5 months ago, maybe more, can't remember exactly, heeh). The specs are listed in my sig (The Beast).
I installed everything as defaults, mobo settings, etc etc, and have never had any problems. I run win2k. So after a few months I decide everything all good so i can raise my processor up to its normal speed, which is 1.33 Ghz. Well, first I change the jumper on the mobo to 133 Mhz Bus speed instead of 100 Mhz. Thinking this is what I need to do and this will make it run at 1.33 Ghz. I start it up, screen tells me its running at 1333 Mhz. Happy days!
I get to the win2k login screen, enter my password, hit enter, it begins to load, I get the welcome to windows noise and within 5-10 seconds (it varies, but always happens while programs are still loading) my comp crashes. I get a blue screen, which stay on for a millisecond, so I have no idea what it says, and my comp restarts itself. This happens everytime. So I decide to change the jumper back to default and just raise the bus speed in BIOS, no beans, same problem. The I change it back to 1000 Mhz and it crashes once or twice on boot and then it doesn't have anymore problems, and has been on constantly for the past month.
Anyone know why this would happen? What can I do to get my speed up to 1333 Mhz? I'm getting extremely frustrated. This is the first comp I ever built which is why I left it at default for a few months just to make sure all was going well, etc. Its not even that the speed makes that big a difference, its just that I can't pull out of it what I should be able to.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
