P4 1.6A - Overclocking Hell!

[Nate420]

Actually, it was the 2.0 ports that caused the problems for me. I use a Razor Boomslang mouse, which is USB, and never had any probs with it in the 1.0 ports. My HP printer was the device I had in the 2.0 port, but I hardly ever print anything, so it's not an issue for me. I just plug it in when needed.

Setting the voltage to 1.70 seems to have cured all my problems with this system. I have not been able to reproduce the audio problem since going to the higher voltage. Also the system has been running for two and a half days without a reboot. And that is after hours of RTCW, hours of C&C Renegade on-line, and hours of Serious Sam; The Second Encounter over a lan. Oh yeah, and Seti@Home running 24/7. What do the Turbo 1 and Turbo 2 settings do different then the normal setting? If it is set to normal do the pci/agp settings scale up with the fsb?

The Turbo 1/2 settings lock the PCI/AGP bus speed regardless of the FSB. The "normal" setting lets the PCI/AGP speed increase as the FSB increases. The setting for Turbo 1 is 36/72Mhz (according to a guy over on Hard who checked it with an ocilliscope), Turbo 2 is a little faster.

 

[Nate420]

I agree with Ralf.

Nightstalker:

Just out of curiousity, what is the FPO Batch # for your NW 1.6a?

Also, does it match the FPO Batch # on the outside of your Retail Box?

Answer my question first, then I'll tell you what you might have and why you aren't able to reach 2.4ghz with ease

Platinum 321 you are plain wrong cause I can overclock my 1.6 williamette to 2050 with no problems sounds like a board problem more then anything.
