decreasing oclock potential?

[toutin]

I have a duron 700 akca 0044 and I've run it @ 700 for the most part of his life. I tried it some times ago @ 900 at 1.79V(reported, 1.7V selected) and it was perfectly stable but ****ty chrome orb made me decide to let it @700. I got a PAL6035 (original with weak and quiet sanyo denki sucking) so I decided to boost it. I put it back to 900 @ 1.79V and it won't boot. (!!!) Trying several voltages, I get a) no boot OR b) bios checksum error (btw, what's this?). I really don't know what's the cause :(
I now run it @867 (8.5*102 @ 1.79V, KT 133 are so bad for FSB oclocking :( )
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thank you.

yes, you are right, sell the kt133, get the kt133A or the new cheaper kt133E and be happy :-) :-) :-)

what about not being able to reach 9*100 anymore?

I don't know much about Asus mobos, but if your cpu temp is higher because of a less than perfect mount job on the 6035, that might keep it from booting. Did the 6035 come with a thermal pad? If so, did you remove it, clean off the base with a good solvent and apply some thermal grease? Not having changed anything other than the heatsink, that would be the area I'd examine. That's all that comes to mind.

Why not just up the voltage to 1.85 and not worry about it ;-)

I tried it at 900 at 1.85-1.88 and it booted fine, I rebooted and I had a bios checksum error and no more 900.
What do you think about some burning in?
