- Overclocking - Am I doing it right?

[unc0ntr0l]

Ok most of you are going to tell me to RTFM and stuff the thing is that I lost it.
Well I went into my BIOS and then went to Frequency and Voltage Control and changed something that said:

DEC Min 100
MAX 133

I changed it to 120 and from 1250Mhz I went to 1480 ok so I guess I overclocked my computer but the problem now is that the more I overclock the more times I have to restart like for example If I overclock to 120 I have to turn on my computer and reset it twice so that it works.

Am I doing something wrong or is that suppose to happen?

ummm... I read his sig...
ABIT only makes 1 Athlon 64 board that carries the MAX name. And <most> mobo makers have all the manuals for their boards posted on their support pages. I keep all my motherboards manuals in .pdf on archive disks just in case.

I wasn't trying to sound like an ass hat. Hell, I even found the link for him and put a smiley in.

peece, yo
