  • General tip for o/c

    If you are using vista (specifically x64 premium sp1) and after the loading bar disappears....
    If the windows logo doesnt appear first: ie if you see a mouse pointer or a spinning circle for 1 or 2 sec,chances are your overclock wont be stable under testing.
    Thats what ive found anyway after many test reboots.

    It may apply to xp etc too.

    Ohh yeah? I never noticed, But guess I never paid much attention to it in that aspect.

    I do know if the sound freezes while you see the circle then you are not going to boot into vista
