Hello all,

I've brought this board, it's got a handy Overclock button when I push it it gives me 4.3ghz from my I5, but after a while in windows it crashes me out with a blue screen, it doesnt do this if the Oc button is off? has any1 else had this problem with this board as I really want the Pc to run faster then the basic 3.3Ghz.

Many Thanks

What voltage is the board giving the CPU, it may need to be increased a notch.

thats the thing when in Oc mode you cannot change any settings, you can only change setting when in manual mode, I'm tempted to overclost it myself but I'm worried that I ruin the PC as I've never overclocked before

Overclock yourself and use the settings recommended by Gibbo in the thread below.

As RJC said, sounds like voltage. Enter the BIOS, and mimmick the settings, but up the voltage by one increment.
