I tried to find a manual on how to do it with ntunes. i couldnt find anything so i decided to use ati tools both .26 and .27 both of which when i load them they give me a kernal error stating drivers arnt signed i can hit ok and get to the software but then i cant hit the find max button please help. i am willing to use any software as long as i have a manual or a how to use txt.

i have vista 64bit and the 320 mb evga 8800 gts

Well, overclocking has risks. When you choose to overclock, you're choosing to take those risks.

right now i have my 8800gts overclocked to gpu 612 mhz and the gpu memory is up to 900 mhz and im still at 62 c how high can i go that its at a safe level

im using ntunes benchmark to stress my pc also. to see how high i can get up the temp

i just hit 64

edit: using ntunes under the monitor view the 2nd window has bus speeds i just read if the color next to the info is red it can be bad. both where red for me i droped the gpu down to 540 and the memory to 810 and not red anymore. is this a good overclock? original was 517 cpu core and 792 memory

edit again. is it ok to be in the red or not lol i have no idea i wish the auto tune worked. i have the same problem with ati tools. even under device manager ati tools says theres a drivers issue :( i am using the 163.75 the newest none beta drivers
