AMD 1.2@1.33 boots at 850Mhz after reset

[Neetje]

After reset the system (WindowsME) boots up with a lower speed as set in BIOS. Only when system is shut down and starts it will boot up with 1.2@1.33 and is working ok. Which air-cooler can be used as best, because temp is over 50C

neetje, It would help if you gave more info, MOBO, RAM, CPU and etc.
This will help us, help you.

umm. do yo get any startup errors?

not sure about the bootup errors. The best hsf's are the Swiftech MC462A which is the best, but is $80, or the Globalwin Cak38 which is slightly worse, but only $36. After that, you run into all sorts that give similar results(WBK38, FOP38, Vantac FOP38 clone, Taisol monster Hsf w/ delta, PEP66T, etc.). The CAK38 is the best bang for the buck. On your bootup errors, all I can think of is that Win ME wants to not read something from the bios. But that is it, that is really odd. Have you tried to flash to a newer bios?

Yes, i updated the BIOS to 051101, the latest. COLD start and rebooting gives errors, that´s a bug in the MSI MOBO. I´ve read something about it. With warm start it reboot ok.
Cooling my AMD is still a big gggggggggg problem, it´s runs on 1,70V and 1264Mhz and temp is about 55/60C. Nothing to about that. I tried better coolers but the only thing you get is a lot of noise.
I wait untill it´s fried ..... KILL AMD, IT´S TO HOT FOR ME

Have you tried a peltier of watercooling-something dont sound right-it shouldnt be that hot at only 1.7 volts-maybe you are underclocking and that is the problem

[Neetje]

If i set al the settings in the BIOS my AMD1.2 is still hot, up to 53 degrees. I am using a heatsink compound (silver) and a coolermaster, but still to hot to handle.
