Hey guys! I have a agoia (or whatever) 1600+ and have unlocked it. I love this chip! It absolutely flies on my board. The problem is that sometimes it doesn't post when I do a warm reboot. Any ideas what might cause this? I don't have any problems with a cold boot but if I restart windows it will sometimes work and somtimes not?
I have a Soyo Dragon+ motherboard...l
I unlocked the chip with the defogger paint.
Thanks in advance for your help!

download prime95 and run the torture test for ~12hrs (over night works best)

you can run it in the background while doing something, so run it for an hour or so while doing whatever you normally do on the computer, and then if it hasnt failed by then let it run over night (or durin the day, whenever you want)

if it fails, your cpu is not stable (its making mathematical errors) and could be the cause
lower overclock, or raise vcore and try again

Thanks for the adice but I must not have been clear. The problem isn't stability. The problem comes when I go to reboot. It doesn't post (i.e. beep) on a restart. If I then shut off the power then it will run all day long..... I'm just looking for a fix for this. Thanks again!
