The pc would reboot while running and the time period between when it crashed shortened... I was checking the bios setup, restored defaults then was resetting. Then I checked the CPU temp and it was at 49 - ouch - so even money the problem is that I I've smoked my CPU. Even though my old Volcano was turning 6500RPM (at 40 decibels - been meaning to get a quiet one anyway)...
I was using the onboard graphics as I was more easily swapping between an old Matrox Dualhead running twin 17s ot the OB driving a single 21
'Course, I can test the CPU by swapping in another Athlon but then my second machine comes offline
which means I'll need to use one my 500s, Dual 333's, or Heavans to Merdratoid, a single 333
Oh, I wasn't overclocking as ocasionally I bump it up to see what I can do but I'd rather have the reliability. I haven't Oclocked seriously in a few years - rather geek systems or tune my reels, hehehehe. But I was getting the C300As to over 5, and even back to single Pentiums
Leptar - that's a nice OC, tough temp - whay CPU cooler you running (and how loud is it?)
Scoobe - that's one I'm considering...
