I have given up my quest for 1.3 for the moment and I have decided to stick with 1.275ghz for now. I have it running very stable and it passes any torture tests that I throw at it but for some reason at very random times (ie: when clicking on a link in internet exploer) the system completely freezes and I have to use the reset button to get back in business. My suspicion is that this is because I am running my fsb at 150 and my memory can't handle it. Are my suspicions correct and if so will raising the i/o voltage to 3.6 help this or do I need to back of some of the memory settings and maybe set it to cas 3? If my suspicions are incorrect any suggestions to solve this would be greatly appreciated. I have been running the i/o voltage at 3.5 and it's been having this problem. I really want to be able to keep the fsb at 150 since it just smokes at that speed so I would like to avoid having to set that down if possible! Thanks for all the help!

Well I don't know if thats it since I never had any problems like that in Windows 2000 before and never with the cpu running at stock speed so thats why I have to imagine it has to do with the overclocking. Thanks for the response!
