ive gota Epox kha+ board and a oem AthlonXP 1900+

i finally got it to work at 133 fsb.

Now ive got a new problem, it freezes at load on win2k and win98, its about 52 C or so.

does it mean this is overheating?

ive got a VANTEC CCK-6027D (6000rpm) heatsink/fan.

maybe this isnt cutitng out for the 1900+

whats a good suggestion for a new heatsink/fan combo.
the sk-1?

also ive got arctic silver II on the cpu.
THeres also artic silver II on the north and south bridge, both have heatsinks on them.

It could be that your heatsink is installed the wrong way... U should check it out, that could raise temps very much...

I don't think that 52 should give you problems. I would lool elseware for a solution.

the funny thing is if i leave the comp off overnight, for it to cool off.

it would run it at 133 fsb
