Duron Morgan Core problems

[zerocool1]

I recently got a 1.1 Duron using the morgan core. I unlocked it via pencil and oc-ed it a measly 100 mhz cuz with anything more I was unable to reboot. and at that temp it would run at around 109 F. So now it won't let my run @1.2 anymore and occassionaly bios says that the CPU is unworkable, in which case I clear the bios. Any suggestions that would give me a more permanent remedy to fix my problem?

Why yes it could. Time to break out the old eraser!

I got a 1gig Morgan core that will do 1.2gig but not dance at 1.33gig. And my AGOIA core 1600+ will only go 1.65gig stable. I feel your pain.

But I only paid $18 for the Morgan and $40 for the 1600+, so I can't complain too much.

109f is nothing for temp. Pencil mod some voltage to the chip. I beleive Morgans run 1.75 default, so set it to 1.8volt and see what happens.
