Hi,

I read with amazement about all your exploits overclocking your celerons. Could you please help me with mine.

mobo : asus p3v4X ( apparently no problems with this bozo, my friend managed to overclock his PIII on this mobo without problems just to test.)
RAM : 2 slabs of 64MB m-tech RAM (brand new)
chipset: celeron 500. 1.5 weeks old.
clock freq : 68+
heatsink + fan standard issue with box
(added thermal compound though)
temp -> hardware monitor pro : approx 42-45
BIOS hardware monitor: approx 49-53

Heat doesnt seem to be the problem. But at any other bus speed, the PC gets unstable and stalls after a while or there will be the infamous windows error message. Pls give me ideas to try and see what exactly is my celeron's problem. Thanks. Am I that unlucky to get a less than perfect celery? oh man.
