OC Problems

Mow · Post by **Mow** » 01 May 2008, 11:12

Guys , I have posted in some other thread about this issue. But the problem is now worse than ever.

When I first got my machine I was running 3.6GHZ. With 1.5 volts . One day the machine would not boot . Dropped it down to 3.5 and it worked fine for 9 Months running mem @ 1000 . 4.4.4.12. Suddenly one day about two weeks ago the same thing happened. Now Im only able to boot @ 3.2 and mems stuck on 800.

The pc boots and then gives a blue screen Not equal something. But when i drop the clocks everything is fine. Also it sometimes hangs in the Bios.

If anyone could tell me what the problem is i would greatly appreciated it.

Could it be that my PSu cant supply the voltage @ the higher clock ? I have a cheapy isonic omega 600watt PSU.

give us the stop code that the bsod gives.

Its some thing like is_Not_Equal.

Yeah, but it should also give you a stop code, something like this"

Stop 0x0000000A

I might not be on-line later, but you can check your stop code against this page for possible resolutions http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/Windows- ... 43519.html

You might also want to install speedfan to check monitor your systems voltages. If voltages are much lower than what they should be it can be the PSU.

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL ?

Normally faulty ram or dimm slot on the mobo that causes this

two new developments.

The situation is getting worse. It dropped to 2.9 ghz on saturday and last night i could not boot at anything above stock. And even then it failed twice. When i oc it boots and either hangs on windows loading screen or gives me GREEN garbaled display. ---- Any thoughts ?

I 2nd that

have you already tried lowering your RAM back to stock speed(800Mhz ?) or even lower than stock ?

is your graphics card also OC'd ?

No it won't.

Dude, clear cmos

It's silly but hey

Also, your ram might be degrading. It's a steep slippery hill
