i have a MSI K7n420 mobo...and amd 1800+ xp processor. in the bios there are a ton of frequency/voltage settings...i can make it goto 1600 but setting it to some freq. there is about 7 more after that setting, but everytime i try that, the computer won't start

i'm guessing it requires more voltage, but i didn't want to mess with it without getitn some of your expert advice. all/any help is appreciated.

also i have a onboard NVIDIA geforce 2...how can i crank up performance for that as well (i know it won't be hardware, so any recomended software?)..thanx a lot

your 1800+ (1.53ghz) wants to go to 1.8ghz? sure some overclocking allows you to go higher and boot, but just because it boots doesnt mean its stable, run a game for a long time (Quake3 is good for this), but without some water cooling and some chip multiplier unlocking you wont get your 1800+ to be 1.8ghz

how do i do some chip multipler? is it software based or chaning jumpers??

there are some settings in the bios, but i don't see many jumper setting on the mobo.

you kan sloiwly crack up your voltage but becarefull.
i have an AMD 800MHZ and without extra cooling i managed to get 1000MHz out of it.
I only changed the multiplyer and the voltages.
to give you an idea:
core voltage from 1.6V tot 1.775V
I/O voltage from 3.3 tot 3.5V
an always run soms programs to check the temperatures.
my cpu does not go higher than 48°C, so give it a try.
but don't push it
