every one no win 2000 don't like overclock right. so here my one gig tbird overclock to 1.41gig =10.5x133fsb . (cheap ram 256mb pc133 don't know who make it for 68 buck)run very stable crack on stab test 6 for 18 hours. but when i run winme it post and get ero. sometime registry erro too. under winme run stable only at 1.300 gig. so any one know what going on. it that cause by cheapo ram or what else??????????1gig@1.41gig

 

[miller585]

Win2k is alot more stable than WinME is and that is probely why you cant get as good of an overclock, I suggest you stick with Win2k if you can.

How come you talk like Chief Run-with-stick?

sounds like this old chinese lady who lives next door.

[osage]

a member asked a question relating to hardware and you guys just slam his grammer skills.
if you aren't going to contribute to the thread just stay off it. you 2 are senior members, look at the post from a jr member above your smarta$$ posts. you should know better

perhaps you misspelled your names, should it start with a D ?? or be just plain Freek

dingdongdingdong,
What motherboard are you running which you can hit the 133fsb?

 

[dingdongdingdong]

I use abit KT7A+Raid

 

[JONNYROTTEN]

hehe..

 

[loosbrew]

it very well might have to do ith the fact that win2k uses acpi more efficiently than any other windows OS(not sure but its a guess) i know that acpi mainly has to do with cpu cooling and such so maybe youre over heating in winME? just some food for thought. nice overclock by the way, i think i may have to trade my kt7/raid for one of these.

Win2K includes the HLT command as part of the System Idle thread. The HLT command "halts" the processor and essentially places it into sleep mode, cooling the processor down when idle. This is probably why your Win2K does better than WinME.

Have you considered using a better form of cooling, ie larger/more efficient HSF?

 

[shadow]

yeah the HLT command is in there BUT will have no effect @ 100% CPU usage which this gentleman is doing (correct me if I'm wrong dingdong)

 

[dingdongdingdong]

well i think heating is not problem. cause boot up temp 1gig@1.41 is 38c. and at 1.37gig is only 36c under two 2two operation system.at this temp in not hight at all.so it much be something. by the way thank for those who reply

I cant even overclock at all in WIN ME It is the most unstable OS ever used.........HATE IT. I use WIN 2K and can get my duel celerons (366) to run stable at 533 i have even had them up to 605 but it is unstable and crashes after each round of counters-strike....and wont download a file that is usable but still pretty great numbers!! I* keep them at 533 works fine and doubled with tnt 16meg and an IBM deskstar 7200 rpms keeps with most machines twice its size.....the best thing is the cost 50-ish for each cpu 130 for the deskstar 40 or less for tnt under 100 for abit bp6 you cant miss!!

At what voltage are you running your t-bird? I'm sure you had to turn the voltage up to get to 1.41ghz. Try going one setting higher with the voltage unless you are already at it's limit. I have seen posts from people running these t-birds at over 2v.

[dingdongdingdong]

every thing set on max .(volt 1.85)

osage,

I wasn't making fun of dingdong. was just replyig back to stickhead's post. and for your info, I purposely used my nick with 2 "e" ok? just to make the sound "eeeekkk!!!". now satisfied?

SCSIfreek, I accept your explanation of your post.
Been a lot of new guys getting jumped on by long time members lately, we were all new once, if we beat up on them everytime thay ask for help they will go somewhere else.

sorry for messing up your post Dingdong.
