Overclocking help; your suggestions, please.

Version 3.73.1220. I went to their website forum & found a suggestion to try disabling the "Use HPET" option in HWiNFO32 prior to starting the scan. This fix the crash.

I've update the BIOS once again (F4) but this time using Q-Flash & a USB drive. No excitement this time. Still had to reset all BIOS setup but no problems.

About OC; compared to my old PC, this PC is much, much faster. AVCHD would really bog the old PC down; this PC makes short work of it. The door is always open to replace the HS in order to get even faster results. I'll do an Eisenhower & stay in the middle of the road with what I have. ;)
