Well.. I don't know if this is related but when I installed my new CPU cooler I had to use quite a bit of force and cunning(when the first failed) to get the clips to attach.
Anyhow before this I could reach 3,4 stabily and at least get 3,6 to boot into windows. Now when I try to alter the clock frequencies the first thing that happens is that the computers boots into windows with default freqs and when I reboot it it shuts off and then I hear the CPU turning on and off in an endless loop (you know the weird sound the cpu makes)..
So am I screwed? What's broken the CPU or mobo?
