Its most likely down to the fact that your CPU doesn't want to OC that far without a voltage increase.

You were quite lucky to get into the bios again, otherwise you would have to reset your CMOS using the jumper on your motherboard.

What motherboard have you got? If you are thinking of overclocking, it might be worth looking into something with a few more OC options

That will be whats holding you back

lol thanx alot

 

[Sloth_Boy]

also, your probably getting no signal becuase your AGP bus is too high since you probably ahvent locked the AGP/PCI bus

 

[Towlieee]

ya I use a ECS board also, can't loclk the agp/pci ports

I have it OCed 20% and somtimes it dosn'et wanna boot lol.. somtiems it'l gimme a PCI.sys error, other times it'l just crash windows and reboot again.

But last few days its been doing just fine

yeah only reason i got this board cause my old cpu and motherboard fryed when i was staying somwhere else and he got this ****ty motherboard cause he knows nothing about computers
