OCing P2.4

[CaptCanada]

Hi everyone,

I have had my Pentium 2.4B and MSI 648 Max L mobo for about a year and would like to try and overclock it, but I have had some trouble

I am running WinXP Pro on my rig with 512 PC3200 ram CAS 2 and find that when I try to overclock my rig from 133fsb to say 140 fsb, the system will boot into the os okay, but once booted it will suddenly reboot. I have the cpu and ram running at stock voltages. Do I need to play around with the voltages of the cpu/ram to sucessfully overclock my rig?

Things were so much easier when o/cing my PIII 866, ah the olden times!!

Thanks for the help,
Don

Sounds like a ram problem. Try relaxing your timing a bit and see if the reboot problem goes away.

i know 140 isn't too much over the stock 133.. but make sure you have a pci/agp lock on that board... i'm not too familiar with it but yeah... check anyway! 🙂

Ya definitely put the lock into place if it exists..

Bump your Vdimm to 2.8v ( ram voltage )

Bump your Vcore to 1.6V (Core CPU volts)

Who makes your PC 3200?
