hello all,
I got some Problems with overclocking my cpu.........
I have an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ cooled by an Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 running on an ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe. When I go to the bios to overclock my cpu, i change the stuff and when I go to reboot, my computer seems to lockup and when I finally get it to work, some bios error message comes up about the fan rpm being too slow...is this affecting my oc or is it my bios version, the motherboard itself?
I'm really confused :confused: . I was able to hit 2.56ghz, but then when i rebooted, I got all kinds of errors.

if I could get any help I would really appreciate it.
thank you for your time

**edit*** when the error message comes up, it puts my stock settings back and not that oc settings.......................
 
Apparantly your fans are spinning slower than the rpm limits they have put in the BIOS to consider the fan has failed. Disable the the fan monitors in the BIOS to get rid of the error. Should be under Hardware Monitor menu or something similar. No biggie. Then you should be allowed to boot without any further error messages.....hopefully.
 
If, that does not work, then use 4 pin molex connectors rather than motherboard connectors to run your fans.
 
ok, im gonna try turning off that setting in the bios if i can find it.
thanks alot
i'll let you know how things turn out
