Default OC not working in Vista
i loaded up vista last night and after everything was set up I started to OC. I put in some settings i knew were stable to start with and it boots up fine. then i look at "computer" properties and it still shows 2.6 cpu. then i load up amd over drive and it ways the same thing. any idea why it won't let me OC?
