Added on June 21, 2007, 7:53 amI encountered the same problem as yours .. Everything running fine, sudden black out .. Restart PC, software prompted display driver recovered .. I don't think it's the RAM giving problem .. Most probably the display driver itself .. After few times that message popped up, I disabled the onboard VGA and got myself PCIe graphic card instead .. Solved the problem once and for all ..

8tvt,
In my case, it's in default settings .. Countless times of restarting PC due to screen blackout lar, hang lar .. Got fed up and bought a graphics card .. Thought can save couple hundred of ringgit by using a built-in GPU MOBO .. In the end, the-thought-could-save ringgit still flew out from my wallet ..

You encounter any problems with onboard GPU or you used standalone GPU since day one??

kalakatu,
Like jy14 mentioned, test with different components, troubleshoot using trial and error method until you found the culprit .. Culprit could be the mobo .. If the processor failed, you would not be able to boot at all ..

The rams are on slot 3 and 4 .. Nevermind lar .. I'm already using standalone GPU .. Wait for AMD to release new display driver and try later ..

I gave up on the 3Ghz quest .. Hhhahhahhhaaaa .. Now running Cool & Quiet ..

New AMD family member will reach very very soon ..

I'm using ST56F .. Very stable I should say .. I OC to my system's max, the 12V rail never shift a single decimal point ..

Get a good cooler .. Something like Tuniq Tower 120, Noctua NH-U12F, High-end Thermalright or maybe Thermaltake's Big Typhoon VX .. I'm using a non-VX Big Typhoon .. With 1.4Voltage running Orthos for 6 hours, max temp only 42 C .. Nearly sold it off because it doesn't support AM2 but abit sayang lor .. Research here research there, modified a bracket that supports AM2 .. My Big Typhoon now supports 775, P4, K7, K8 and AM2 ..

Enabled my C&Q .. Multi set to Auto .. In idle mode will be x5.0 multiplier with 1.088 voltage .. When it detects any demand for performance, will raised automatically to x9.5 multiplier with 1.280 voltage .. C&Q can be used on mild OC but will not work on max OC ..

I bought the SilverStone to OC my Athlon XP 2000+ | Abit NF7-S 2.0 .. Screwed up the bios .. Bought the Brisbane .. A week later successfully hot flashed bios for NF7S .. Too late to use the Athlon XP already ..

I tried OC .. Max I can go only 2660mhz .. Dunno where go wrong .. Fed up .. Stick to default and enabled C&Q .. Forgotten to set HTT to default .. Next time I restart my PC lar .. Lazy ler .. hhehhehehehhehe

My bro using AcBel LCD Power 500watts for his Pentium D 930 C1 .. The 12V rail also very stable ..

My Athlon XP ..

Not yet download the new version .. Later I download and try ..

Don't what happen .. It should be during the process of setting the bios and restarting PC .. Really don't know what happen .. Tried to boot .. No beep at all .. Nothing is working .. My heart stopped beating that very moment .. Exhausted all methods of resetting bios .. removing bios battery .. holding on to a key while booting .. NONE working .. My bro told me he could get hold of a NF7 board but needed a week or two .. Cannot tahan bought Brisbane .. After that only we managed to hot flash the bios of NF7-S .. Will keep or sell the Athlon XP set ..

Congrates on your OC .. Go Go Go !!!

Congrates .. Makes my hand itchy again to try for 3Ghz .. hhhheeheeeeee

lohwenli
Agree on your statement .. Default clock with C&Q is sufficient for me .. I guess I could get below 20C if the proc voltage is below 1V ..

Don't dare to go higher than 2.1Vdimm for the ram I'm using .. If the ram fried like hokkien mee, die lor ..

Sell AM2 changing platform ar??

*Come come come* .. Want money don't want stock .. .. .. .. .. ..

Woah .. 1.475V .. The Brisby is breathing fire on that ..

I need to try different settings .. I can't get 300x9.5 to run on my TA690G ..

Does BIOS version affect OC?? I'm running 601 on my TA690G ..

Get a good cooler .. Lap the base to mirror finish .. Apply a thin, even layer of thermal paste .. Lock it up .. Let it bake .. Voila .. Pump up the Vcore and OC higher .. I bought sand paper of 800,1200 and 1500 grit .. Searching for 2000 or higher then I'm ready to lap the base of my TTBT ..

Sigh .. Attempted to OC past 2660mhz yesterday but still can't go .. Pumped up the voltages for proc and ram .. At 290x9.5 able to boot into Windows but failed Orthos and Super PI .. Still no green light ..

Which cooler U have in mind?? After the cooler then get a better power supply .. OC kau kau ..

TTBT VX good choice .. I'm using a TTBT but not the VX version .. Gives excellent temperature .. Lapped to 2000 grit last night .. Still burning in the AS 5 .. Will be checking on the difference in temperature before and after lapping ..

Monitor closely the voltage of the 12V rail during high OC in case it becomes unstable .. My previos no brand PSU fluctuated alot during OC of my Athlon XP ..

Better get a memory cooler ler and make sure the ventilation within the casing is sufficient ..

GO GO and OC higher ~~

Another attempt at the Quest for 3Ghz .. Still short of 75.5Mhz ..

Batch CAALG 0709WPCW .. Regarding the voltage, I'm trying out how far can the Brisbane go and how stable is my PSU when giving it full load .. I think my ram is the bottleneck ler .. How to reduce the ram speed ar?? I'm running it at DDR533 ..

bryanyeo87,
Using DDR533 at 2T CR .. Increased the trfc to 105ns .. Will try higher ns ..

8tvt,
I'm also using R69AM605.BST .. Very stable but I'm stuck at 308, max is 310 .. Can't go higher than that .. Must be my ram that needed tweaking .. Good thing about this bios is the option for ram setting is working .. Can't work on Bios601, goes back to default everytime the setting is changed ..

Bios 601 also has the NPT Fid Control thingy, tried 9x,5x and 10x (Like you said, not working of course) .. After that, I leave it to AUTO mode ..

I supplied 2.1v too .. Need to play around with the settings ..

What is the method of knowing whether the ram is properly set up??

I flashed mine from from Windows using the BIOS Flash program from Biostar .. Been doing that for many times .. All with success ..

8tvt
I've been doing testing for OC'ing ram by using methods you mentioned .. I thought U got some easier way wor .. .. Will try different settings with my ram till I max it out ..
