I had been running my tbird 700 at 800 for about a week (no games or benching), with seti, folding@home, icq, other cpu testers without issue. Yesterday, I tried to get a 3dmark2k score but it would freeze (requiring reset button). It froze at 787, and worked at 750 (only 1 run, didn't have time for more). Does that mean it isn't really stable at 800 or might the problem be elsewhere?
 
Yea, thats means something isnt stable. Try upping the voltage a bit, and see if that helps. It could be anything though. Post your system spec's maybe we can find the problem.
 
I don't really want to take the voltage higher (I think it happened at 1.9 too) b/c I just have the heatsink it came with (2-6k rpm fans, fins).

If you are upping it by use of FSB that can cause instability also. By using the multiplyer you can get much higher and more stable.
