I seem to have a problem O/Cing my 1200, I can't get it stable over 1260. The highest I,ve had it was around 1330, I change the external clock frec. in the bios then save and restart but it won't reboot the power is on, fans run but won't start and monitor won't turn on, I usually have to wait a min then turn the power off then on again. I have the Vcore at 1.8v now but had it at 1.85v, my temp stays under 45C. WTF do I do next? I would like it to run about 1350 to 1400, and again my temps are fine I just can't get it stable anything above 1300 it doesn't like to restart. And my VIO1 andVIO are at default 2.7v/3.30v now they were at 2.8v/3.45v.

Just wondering what brand of power supply you have.. If you have the stock powersupply that came with the tornado 1000 case I'm pretty sure that is your problem, that thing is worthless for overclocking.. i had the same problem with my tornado 2000 case.. Get a Sparkle 400 watt or a enermax 431 watt power supply, make sure the one you get has atleast 2amps on the 5vsb lead... Both of these power supplys have this recommended current..The older enermax's dont so make sure you get the newest revision..
hope this helps

Yes craig I'm certain this generic power supply is all of your problems, I have this same mobo and power supply you have till I upgraded to the enermax 431 watt powersupply.. Now I have myAsus a7m266 w/ 1.4 @ 1.59 with 152 fsb.. Will post at 1620 but locks up, think it's my soundblaster live 5.1 card prohibiting me from going any further.. about to trash this mobo and get the epox 8k7a ( a real overclocking mobo) hehe
Have fun
