I not really overclocking my system except for running on a 200mhz bus. My cpu is a bit undervolted to 1.55. Everthing else runs stable and I have 0 crashes. Today I tried to run prime95 and it wouldn't run unless I pull back the bus to 166. Why is prime the only one that fails?
 
Prime stresses the CPU, although you should get 100% good feedback, if not over/underclocked or UNDER/OVERVOLTED.

Add the 0.1V and see what it does

-hint hint-
 
even when i placed at default voltage it still failed. It's the only thing that ever failed on this comp. I play a lot of games and none of them ever crash.
 
Do the one thats dedicated to the CPU, not RAM, as that could be your problem.

Ive ran Prime95 a few times, overclocked, it messes up, but I play games fine.
 
Is it anything to worry about if I'm not really having a problem. The only reason I got is it cause I needed to heat my cpu to see my load temps
