New Vid Card = Less Overlcocking?

[JMU1337]

Well, I just installed my new video card (Visiontek Xtasy 9500 Pro) and the system refuses to boot at what I used to have my CPU overclocked at (2GHz). I have been forced to drop it back down to around 1.8GHz.

Processor is an Athlon XP 2100+

Thanks for any and all help!

Maybe the vid card is producing more heat. Is it near your cpu?

Not really, it's definitely not a heating issue because the system won't even POST when I set the frequency higher.

It's a problem with your AGP bus speeds. Your new video card is more sensitive to it. Thats my best guess. I see you only have an Asus KT333 part right?

I've fiddled around inside the case and the BIOS and have found it to be a power issue. I took out one of my low-speed case fans and was able to clock high again.
