Hi djlar,
Please go ahead and open a new thread .. then copy&paste your problem. This will insure that you get better response in general.
BTW, mention your MoBo (msi k7t turbo2 ) in the title so people with the same board can help.

So VERT, any luck with the processor yet? C'mon, c'mon, let us know how it's going!

Also, I agree with Endobiotic's suggestion about running Prime95 to really get that CPU cooking. Very useful for stress testing. However, just to reiterate the reiterated (listen for the sounds of the dead horse being beaten), make sure you watch the temps on whatever system monitor software you are using.

Im at work atm, but will let you know when I haven gotten home and had another play around

Have upped the voltage from 1.6 to 1.65 and am running my PC at 14 x 148FSB, 2072Mhz the equlivant of a 2600 XP, PC has booted fine, seems stable etc

I have been running the stress test on that prime program, 2 questions:

1. How long do I need to run it for? It seems to want to go on forever.

2. how do I check my results?

Just ran 3dMark 2001 didnt crash, so I think it may be all good

Well, with Prime95, the torture test basically as Endobiotic said, runs a number set with known good results. If your CPU starts getting weird for any reason, then a couple of things can happen. Either your system will lock-up/reboot/BSOD, or your system will come up with incorrect results within the number set. Some review sites run Prime95 torture tests for 24 hours, I usually just leave it running for an hour or so, and see how it does. Then I'll run 2 or 3 runs of 3Dmark2k1 and see if it crashes or anything like that. If it doesn't, great, I'll bump it up another couple MHz and see what happens then. If it doesn't make it, I'll bump up the voltage another notch, maybe two, and try again. If my CPU is getting hot, I'll knock it down to the last FSB it was happy at and leave it there.
