Sunny Florida, you can keep the midwest!!
I had just finished replying to Kyro's post and system locked up. Rebooted and seemed alright. Tried to get on line, locked up, but the mouse was movable just would'nt open anything. Rebooted again, white screen w/ close spaced vert.lines and wide spaced horz.lines.
Checked video card, seated properly, checked temps on sensor, no diff, rebooted and still get all the lines.
What could be the possible cause and/or solution?
I did return cpu to stock settings, (1.2 -9x133) but now cannot even get into Bios. Help!!

Since I did not get any replies to my call for help and the forums were down Saturday, I dropped off my PC at a local shop. Maybe they can figure it out @ $50/hour. Quess there was no one who had an idea on my problem. Thanks.
