I'm having the common problem of crashing and freezing on my computer. It'll only run stable if I underclock it to 1050mhz and 200 FSB. If I set it to its full potential (1.4mhz and 266 FSB) it starts crashing. At first I thought for sure this was a heat problem. So I replaced my fan and heat sink with a thermalright sk-6 with a delta fan. My cpu now idles at about 40 degrees celcius (that's on the 1.4 mhz setting)...which I'm thinkin' is plenty cold. But it still crashes. Another thread I read said that someone was having a similar problem and found it to be a power source problem. My current power source is a L & C technology with a 300w output. Could this be the problem? Or maybe it's my motherboard. It's kinda a cheapy. Please someone help!! All I ever wanted was to play Tribes 2 with my systems full potential!
