After O/Cing my system at all it is unstable for the first 2 minutes, after it warms up, I can go from my default 2.2Ghz all the way to 2.8Ghz no problem. I tried the voltage mod, and it still is unstable in windows for 2 minutes. Even unmoded, I get windows errors and GPF's when the system has first been turned on. I tried a different board, but it is also unstable for the first couple of mintues too. What could cause this?

Intel 2.2 Malay
AVC Sunflower H/S
GA-8IRXP
Leadtek GF4 Ti4600
Maxtor ATA/133 Raid 0

first of all, what bios are you running? you should use the f6 if you are not already. next, what are you running your memory at? for higher overclocks, you need to set it down to 2.0 or 200, and as your fsb goes up, so does your memory. third, i would recommend that you use a conductive pen, and either put it on the socket, or put it on the chip itself. it is very tricky to wrap 4 pins on the bottom of the cpu, to set default of 1.85, that is why i recommend doing it this way. with this mod done, it fixes the reboot problem by leaving the cpu default v core in the bios, ie: if you have it set to anything but default in the bios, and you need to restart your machine, it will hang and you will have to shut off for 10 seconds, and then turn back on. depending on temps, at 137 fsb, it would be 3014, and you should be able to do that.
