I overclocked my P4 Northwood 1.8A processor to 2.1Ghz at FSB 117 and when i start the computer the first time I can go into Windows XP and everything is fine, but when I shutdown the computer and open it again it will not boot to Windows XP.
I tried upping the voltage up to 1.625 and it does the same thing.
I tried FSB's from 117 down to 113 and same thing.
At 112 FSB (@2Ghz) that works fine but i get lockups inside Windows XP sometimes.
Could this be because of my power supply?
It is a Aopen 300W which i got with my case.
My load temperatures are around 48Celcius when i overclock, just one or two degrees higher than when its not overclocked. When it's not overclocked there are no lockups.
I have the Zalman Sunflower and two fans blowing in on it (better temps i checked that blowing out).

Tell me what you think, thanks.
