Can someone tell me what this means please:

Using CPU #1
Beginning a continuous self-test to check your computer.

I had Tom off this forum help me overclock my new rig so i dont have any idea what im doing. Tom knows his stuff but he doesnt use Orthos much :p

The rig in question is a E6600 on a DS3P board and 2 x 1gb Crucial 5300 ram! The CPU is cooled by a noctua and only clocked to a measly 3.2 ghz (8x400fsb)!
 
Updated, Tom would like to be known as Jaffa_cake!
After reading some old threads it looks as though i should be upping my vcore a little. Its currently on 1.280v which is stock
 
Im quite sure that CPU clock is safe 400*8 on a E6600 should be fine.

The ram clocked at 1000MHz from 667 (Ballistix PC5300) is what I think is doing it.

DDR is running at stock voltage.

I wouldn't call myself an expert overclocker :)

It means you have a failed overclock and that your cpu cannot calculate correctly


Up the vcore and tweak the settings of your system
 
I think my memory timing is along the lines of 5-5-5-5-15

Listened to Jaffa Cakes advice and upped the DDR2 voltage to 0.05 and soo far Orthos is running longer than previously! If i need to up the vcore how much should i up it by....? But ive been reading that the E6600 should be able to take 3.2ghz at stock volts?

It all depends on the chip.

Some need more some need less

I'm probably just being annoying but I'd suggest not overclocking until you do actually know what you're doing (at least in theory).

And tell Tom if his overclock can't run Orthos for at least 8 hours it doesn't count. ;)
 
Thats not partly true as i upped the DDR2 voltage by 0.05 from stock and orthos ran okay for 7hrs 30mins until i stopped it. HAve run it again and this time it should be for much longer :D
