i got the same problem if i put my P3 733 to 808 in Windows XP Pro...dunno wot causes it

This could be casued by a number of things. What is you FSB??? I know on a pIII running at 133 bus....overclocking to 150-155 can be very unstable.

I have also heard alot of problems with XP and overclocking in general. Both on intel and amd machines. I have not heard what causes the problem only that there is a stability problem.

Hope i helped.

i have seem to found the problem. i changed my SDRAM to 100 instead of 133. so when i clock my cpu to 808 and there by setting the FBS to 147. You're RAM is being tortured with more Mhz then it can take...So by changing it to 100 it will only be 117 now. if you know what i mean. And i ain't getting no more blue screens anymore in XP

I have heard of that working. By Increasing the FSB but selecting the -33 host clock in bios...it seems to fix the problem. But it compromises performnace in away.

I have PIII Coppermine (EB) 800MHz @ 1.0 Ghz (FSB 166MHz) and PC-133 Hyundai SDRAM (at 166MHz too). I run WinXP without any problems. Even if my memory from standart 3-3-3 CAS is OC'ed to 3-2-3.

ok, thanx ...
but isn't it that a FSB of 154 too high enough???
but when i ran that overclocked machine at a windows me/98 platform it ran very stable for almost 8hrs! what's wrong with XP???
