I've got a couple of questions regarding overclocking on a KG7 board..
Yesterday I explored the softmenu settings and came to the conclusion that my Athlon 1.4 was unlocked (Yay!). Consequently I started to try out different settings, I started out by changing the multiplier to 11x133. I rebooted and entered BIOS to check the temp, it was 56c a bit hot but not alarmingly so. Another reboot and W2K seemed to boot just fine then...Bam BSOD, IRQ not less or equal yadayada yada..
*Sigh*
Reboot, entered BIOS, reset the multiplier..Another reboot and W2K ran like a charm...
Then I tried to change the FSB settings, I was able to boot into W2K with a FSB of 139 (above this w2k crashed during boot sequence).
Allthough I was able to boot into W2K it wasn't stable. When I tried to run Sisoft sandra's CPU becnhmark the system spontanously rebooted.
After some testing I came to the conclusion that anything above 133 FSB made the system unstable....
Has anyone else had this kind of problem ???
Shouldn't I be able to atleast raise the fsb with one tiny mhz ??
Oh and by the way this is my rig:
Diskdrive 3,5" 1,44MB
SDRAM DDR 256MB PC-2100
CD Samsung 52x CD
Thermaltake Super Orb
HD IBM Deskstar 60GXP 20GB
Miditower Chieftec DX-01B-D
Asus V7100MAGIC/T AGP
MK ABIT KG7 ATX SocketA
SoundBlaster 128
AMD Athlon K7 1400/266 Socket A
