*sigh* I took all the time and patience to pensil in the crap on my Duron 800 so i can OC it, right? Well! I go into my bios, and I OC my card to 900.. and when I reboot I get a error saying "Invalid Sync" on my monitor, and then my monitor just goes blank and turns off. Any clock speed over 835 does that to me, and it really makes me mad that I cant OC successfully! A couple times though, I can boot up @880 and it will get into windows, but it always freezes up when or right after I log on. I tried changing the voltage to my CPU but that didnt help.

Can ANYBODY help?? Thanks a BILLION to anybody that solves this problem for me.

Also - I do have proper cooling for my processor.

Look mister, do you know what your doing, and have you graduaded from newbie school yet? Its all simple chemistry. Make sure your FSB is correct, this could play a major role in your OC'in adventures...

did you try leaving the bus speed at 100 and just raising the multiplier? If that doesn't run stable it's your processor, mobo, power supply or cooling holding you back.

Yea, if i just raise the multiplier, it wont even show the "invalid sync" crap, it just keeps the screen blank, but i can hear my cpu booting up

I'm not sure, but it sounds like maybe one or more of the bridges are not connected properly. It could also be a result of having the MSI board. If you look in the reviews in front, Ed has a couple of articles that might help you get better results.
