this is probly nothing new to most of you but if your a beginner like me this is one of the best things ive found yet!!
since i started over clocking ive had a number of crashes, the bad ones , 2 so far, i`ve had to over write windows me to restore my system, regisry error`s wont load windows, screwed right.. not so if this happens to you, just pop in your start up disk, and at a prompt type scanreg/restore and bang your system will be up and running in a few minutes

my arm is geting sore from patting my self on the back for fixing this one haha:D

You probably need to lower your speed or increase the voltage. I get the registry error a lot when I don't put enough voltage and the processor becomes unstable.

could you explain how to get to pure dos in a crash situation when windows wont load, and if i run norton from the cd (i dont install seems to bog the system a little) will that fix registry error`s as well

hit F8 right after the bios screen and you should get a menu. Select the safe mode command prompt only option.

Only problem with that suggestion is that there is no Command Prompt boot option with WindowsME... ;)
