Yes, I do overclock it. I even run -CURRENT on it. Since it does not have a floppy drive, last time I did a full reload, I installed the 2.1.6 bindist loading sysinstall with fbsdboot.exe, installed 2.2.5 over it by hand from a CheapBytes CDROM, cvsupped -CURRENT and built world. To get it to recognize whatever is in the secondary ide, I need to compile a kernel with: options DISABLE_PCI_IDE. One of these days I will try Linux on it. Statistically, it crashes more frequently if running under spec (and crashes the same way under 2.2.5 and 3.0). When it is in a good mood, it will build world several times in a row (6-8 hours every one). I never experienced a crash when running Windows on it (mostly for games, but survived very well a 60min session trying to stress it to the maximum, while compiling some large programs with BC 4.5). The crashes have become more commom after adding a new 2GB IDE to it. I have noticed that enabling APM in the BIOS reduced the crashes. It is test machine. The machine I do my serious work runs -STABLE and has a 46 days uptime record (was down for a kernel upgrade). |> Happy hacking, |> joelh |> |> -- |> Joel Ray Holveck - joelh@gnu.org - http://www.wp.com/piquan |> Fourth law of programming: |> Anything that can go wrong wi |> sendmail: segmentation violation - core dumped You can press 'd' now :) Paulo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
