Setting up my desktop for the distributed computing. It has as I recall, an Athlon 64 dual core processor. OE speed is 2.3 ghz. Was playing with it by software OC (gigabyte motherboard so I'm running gigabyte easy tune 5).
Had it up to 2.5 with no voltage change, and it was fine. It was running the computing package. Decided to play without some more and took it to 2.6, which was still in the safe "yellow" zone. Computer froze. Rebooted a few times and when I start the SW, the computer freezes. If I don't start it, the computer is perfect. So it's almost like the SW is enabling the settings that are unstable before the GUI even pops up! Seems stupid since if you set a bad value, you're done with it this way, as you can't get back into the SW. But it's what seems to be going on, given the stability when the program isnt running.
Any ideas how to fix this? I've heard that this easy tune stinks, but it does make it easy to push the values up a bit.
