Overclocking problem.

Azza · 4 Sep 2006 at 00:49

I have a X2 3800 on a DFI SLI-D.

I have it at 2.2 at the moment but when i put it a little higher even 2.25 in boots into windows and then comes up with an error saying that something had to be recovered in the registry and my PC just frezzes.

I can restart and go into the bois and put it back down to 2.2 and it works fine.

I have manged to get it too 2.7 fine, but that was before I formated my hard drive and reninstalled windows.

Does anybody have any ideas on what is happening?

What are your voltages and memory dividers set at?

Your sig is way too big, read the FAQ

The bit you need to know states that you must not have more than 4 lines of text in your signature (Incase you really can't be bothered to read it all).

Well it seems to be fine now. I took it back down to 2.0, but not by reseting it in the bios, by doing the optimized defaults, but i took it back down 5mhz at a time back to 2.0

Now i have put it up to 2.25, but I started overclocking at a voltage of 1.375.
Memory divider is at 9/10 or CPU/11 as it says in CPUZ, so my Ram is running at 204.6.

I think its time to get overclocking.

Make sure the pci-e frequency is locked at 100MHz. I had a similar registry/corruption error when overclocking as I didn't have this locked.
