Hi Guys.. I really need some help..
I was trying to overclock my Duron 600 on A7V MB.. and After unlocking it with my pencil I tried 1.7V at 700 and started booting, but it stopped booting process after detecting my hardrive and DVD player....just hangs..
I tried reset button.. and it goes right into the BIOS and Says that last time system hang because CPU wasn't properly clocked or something like that..
Even if I go with default setting for Duron 600.. system hangs after detecting my drives..

Oh.. When it was running fine at 600 I overclocked my prophet II MX GPU under win98.. oh well.. system hanged with my older PCI card as well.. so I guess is not problem with Graphic card..

Can anybody help me with this problem? did I kill my CPU?
or is there any way of resetting it?
please help!!!

thanks..

check your heatsinc(you do have one on dont you) maybe it's not making good contact. Also try redoing the pencil trick.
 
yeah.. I have my heatsink on.. and temp reading in bios is about 47C
although it went up to 53C when I had it at 1.7V
See.. I can access bios if I hit the delete key before it starts detecting my drives and hangs..
 
how long did you use it before overclocking? I stil think if you redo the unlocking it wil be fine. you can always up the voltage and see if wil be stable again at 600.
