Comment: I have an Abit AB-BH6 motherboard with a celeron 366 chip and 196 ram. I overclocked it to 456 by chanaging the multplier to 8X and changed nothing else in bios. The after about a week everything starting going haywire. Fatal errors, antivirus wouldn't run

Reply: (edit)The multiplier on the Celeron 366 was locked at 5.5 The only way to overclock it is to increase the FSB setting. The Abit BH-6 was not the best for pushing the FSB up near 133 MHz. I could never get mine above 112 MHz and it remain stable.

Reply: (edit)For some reason, when I try to overclock my CPU via FSB, the BIOS keeps giving me a msg to check my settings. After that, it would run at it's default setting (3x66), even though my CPU is a PII-450 (intel retail CPU), a 4x100 CPU. What gives? Why do they even tempt us with FSB of 83, 75, and 112 if they wont even let us use it?
