    Are you going to share the settings on how you got it configured? The timing clock is the important bit, isn't it?

    Cheers,

    Steve.

    Well using setFSBtray, and setFSB.

    started off slowly.. got up to 1.46Ghz that had been running fine for about 3-4 hours use. Video's, internet, flash games ect.
    Using AA1 fan control. set to turn the fan on at 50c CPU never goes over 55c.. :D

    On setFSB i tried it a little high going up by one unit at a time.
    Got to FSB at 156.3, DDR at 312.6,
    Tried it.. seem ok..
    With multiplier stepping - at x6 its 937.8, and x10 - 1563Mhz - pretty quick.

    so started using it.. has not crashed yet..
    increased the FSB to 156.6.. crashed. programs were crashing then it blacked screen lol

    I also dont have a lot running in the back ground. at the mo only setfsbtray, avg pro, aa1fan control, and firefox - plus the standard xp process.
    I only use these speeds when watching HD media, or using one program that can be quite heavy.
    Other wise tend to drop it to 1.45Ghz just to save a little more battery, and on the move i underclock to 1.28Ghz for long battery live.

    So not bad.

    Interesting results. Isn't there an option where you have to select the timing clock chip type or something? Which is the correct one?

    Cheers,

    Steve.
