Me again, with what is probably another stupid question
I have been running Windows XP pretty much since it was released and have never seen the old blue screen of death, until 2 days ago.
I recently set up my Athlon 1.33 to overclock at 1463 and installed MBM5 to keep an eye on it. It ran smoothly for about 2 days and then while i was playing a game it crashed and jumped to a blue screen saying that there was a problem with the hardware or software. I reebooted and it was ok.
A few hours later I rebooted the system and the screen came up during start up with a "Fail to initialise stage 3" error. This time I had no option other than a complete re install
Again everything was runnig smoothly but on about the 4th reboot after installing my usual software I got the screen again.
I have now reset the cpu to 1333 and not installed MBM5 and so far (fingers crossed) everything is ok.
Does this ound like an overheating stability problem or could it be MBM doing something funny ? These are the only two things I can think of that I changed to bring on the problem.
