Tight Enough!

[Guest]

Ever twisted that screw just a little bit tighter only to ring it off? Well, When trying to get my fsb to 112 (next step up for ole bh6, I started getting bios asking for a boot disk, w98 freezing, w98 takeing over and backing up registry, and finally bios setup screen freeze on boot up. No bios screen= no changing settings back to normal! I'm sure its all because of oc on the pci bus (75mhz)I finally got bios screen to load up, actually got real lucky 3 times. I think I'll leave my fsb at 103mhz before I "ring it off" My $61 Celeron 600 will have to be happy at 927, but I did get to see 1008 on the boot up screen for a little bit!

My mistake. I guess I meant to say the agp was75 and the pci was37. 112/3x2=75. I don't think the hard drive liked it but I don't know why the bios was freezing up on startup. Better safe than sorry!

Nah, I doubt that PCI was the problem-I've ran my SCSI card to 44MHz before. It sounds like youv'e simply reached your limit. You could always try more voltage though!
