Celemine 600 crashes at 83mhz

[melchior]

ok... i think the problem is the agp, but i can't find much on this... i have a ****ty gigabyte bx7, 192 pc-100 ram, 32mb tnt2 m64, a 20gb seagate 5200(i think), and a celeron II 600 with a golden orb.
overclocks at 75mhz just dandy, no problems. but when i jump to 83 it crashes after about an hour... temp. doesn't seem to be a problem since sisoft sandra reports the temp to be 20 degrees celsius. (though this seems unlikely) i took out the agp card and put in an old cirrus logic pci card and it tottled along, no problems.. By the way i'm using seti@home to pressure, goes for longer without it running. when i try to o/c to 100mhz fsb the computer won't even turn on. just black screen. can anyone help? (i really think it's the agp) would a new m/b solve my problems?

thanks

Is it a cBo, cCo? What voltage are you setting it for? Also you may consider leaving it at the 75mhz and running burnBX on it for a bit, if your cooling is adequite. These processors are notorious for being able to boot up 100mhz FSB with stock voltage, but on occasion, you do run across those that won't do it without burning them in a bit and further tweaking, and then some that just wont do it at all. You may want to try upping your core voltage, again, if your HSF can handle the heat ;)

i haven't touched the voltage b/c my m/b doesn't support a function to do so, the default is 1.5, but it reports as 1.4. I am also convinced it's got adequate cooling. (being running 2 hoursehold fans and still, same problem)
as for burnbx, i will try it, but i've been using this cpu for a while now at 75mhz.
and i believe it's a cBo, but that's only according to sisandra.

thanks

try the pin wrapping trick to up the stock voltage ID of the chip .and I bet it goes to 100 maybe

Details on the pin wrapping technique can be found here. http://www.hardocp.com/articles/intel_stuff/bumpvoltage.html

If your Vcore is really 1.4v that would explain the chips reluctance to OC!
