I did run memtest86 after overclocking, no problems during a 24 hrs period. The I compiled 250 kernels, which were all identical. Still, lame is obviously very sensitive. The moral of the story: overclocking a 3700 San Diego to 2750 MHz works most of the time, but not with lame. For now, 2640 works a lot better. > - Check to make sure your system is being cooled adequately. the cpu is never above 45 degrees C. > - Run memtest86 and see if it likes your RAM. 24 hrs - no problems. This must sound lame, but I really thought I had it stable, with memtest and compiling kernels. Thanks, Jurriaan -- Corporal... get me the cassette of Spaceballs: The Movie.
