Overclocking barton 2500+ on nf7-s

Hi Guys! I wonder if you could help me. I have a NF7-s and barton 2500+. I've set the multiplier to 11x200 and the system works but only for 10 minutes. When the CPU temp comes to 50 degrees the whole thing freezes and i have to restart. So the problem is obviously overheating or can Barton go higher than 50 degrees without problems. Please write if you have any solutions! Thanx

I can gei it up to 11x210 multiplier and the system boots up and works but only for a few minutes, until the cpu reaches around 50 degrees - then it's freezing time! I've updated the bios today but no change. I give up since i don't know anything about messing with voltage so i'm running it at default 11x166!
Summary: Has anyone here overclocked a (multiplier-locked) Barton 2500+ on KV7? I'd like to push the FSB from 166 to 200 (I have PC3200 memory), but after I do it the system won't boot. Does it have to do with...
Summary: I have a very odd problem and I am really hoping thing the cause of it is becuase my cpu could be locked. I got this cpu about a month ago from newegg so i really doubt it is. But anyways heres the ...
