What OS are you using?
 
 I take it you have tried to reinstall the software.
 Where does Windows perform the error? [ Edited by Cameron Losco On Date March 13, 2003 ]

I`m running windows XP Pro SP1. Latest nVidia drivers and I`ve tried the Latest MSi Drivers. To no avial.
 It performs the error as I click on one of the tabs or when I try using the MSI monitering tools. I`ll post a screen shot tommorow of the error!
 I`m running an Asus nForce 220d mobo.

I´m not too clued up on Win XP - but surely there´s a safe mode. Have you tried accessing the overclocking tab when in safe mode?
 
 It´s just a thought, but I dunno if it will work. Can´t hurt to try, right.

use nvidia drivers not the msi ones. in oler os´s the registry tweak was: local machine; software; nvidia; nvtweak. in nvtweak add a dword named CoolBits and give it a hex value of 3. that should give you overclocking control.
