overclocking cpu by DIP switch, makes memory error

[nowshining]

IT is weird if I use the GVA-6vx-4x DIP switch to overclock my CPU, the MEMORY get HOOOT, I downloaded memtest86 and at about 40 percent it reported over 50000 errors, however not even downclocking it from 841mhz to 780mhz (original by DELL is 733mhz, it is a pentium 3 altho 98 gold reports a pentium 2, 2000 and above report the correct version) it still reports errors, however when Putting it back to the 733mhz it works fine. What is happening and is there anyway to fix it, also since posting what could be wrong with my Video card, a NVIDIA TNT 2 model 64. It won't work right, it shows lines, i can sometimes get it to work, but then after the BIOS it shows the lines again...Can this be fixed, because this trident blade 3d that came with this computer works fine, except for its bad on games----the TNT NVIDIA is the best...I believe it works because I once Got it to stop the lines and work, however upon reentering the computer, I can't get it to work anymore, I do however make sure it is locked into place..



EDITL upon setting the default 733mhz the memory has no errors... :) and all works fine..

It would help if you would give us some more info about your system. Like whats in my sig.. I'm not sure what MB you have but in some BIOS's you can lock the memory so that it doesn't get affected by your OCing. Did you run any OCing programs while you were raising your FSB like Prime95 or any others?

n/m after removing some cover off two sets of two pins each the memory it not getting hot and everything is working fine now. the pins were located just near my Video card. :)
