Just installed a new 8KHA+ with Athlon 900 and 512 mb DDR. Everything was working fine until I started overclocking. I happily ran Sanda burn-in overnight, but when I rebooted, I got a blue screen with a corrupted WINNT\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM file. After much frustration with Win 2k emergency repair, I reloaded the system from scratch and Ghosted the partition.
Again, everything was fine until I cranked it up the clock multiplier to 10.5 and tried some more aggressive timings with the DRAM. Same story - burn-in and other programs ran fine until I rebooted and got corrupted system files.
Fortunately I was able to restore the partition with Ghost and was back up fairly quickly. All is fine now at standard settings, but where's the fun in that?
I just read the thread about turning off UDMA in the bios and will try that. Does anybody have any other ideas why disk would get corrupted by overclocking?
