I have also been trying to overclock a Cyrix PR200 which my motherboard (a P5V580-B with 580VPX chipset) will let me use at 2 x 75mhz or 2½ x 66mhz. The problem comes when I try to run it at 2½ x 75mhz, The system boots OK and works in DOS mode but Windows (95) won't load. It just freezes at the splash screen. I have tried re-installing W95 but same problem persists. By the way, I can't find a manual for my motherboard, which makes changing jumper settings a real pain Any suggestions ? -----Original Message----- From: Sami Al-Mohssen [SMTP:[log in to unmask]] <mailto:[SMTP:[log in to unmask]]> Subject: [PCBUILD] Overclocking the Cyrix CPU hello everyone System: Cyrix PR200 (150MHZ) ram:64MB. video:normal S3 virge card.
