From BIOS I turn my multiplier up by .5 to make my cpu 2.4GHz instead of 2.3GHz. This was going to be the beginning of a overclock journey, and it started smoothly. Ran cpu stress test for an hour and it passed easily. then i ran css for about 2hours and came of it...still fine. then I leave it idle for about 15 minutes, come back and open a thread on bf2s and DUMPH...blue screen OMFG. i was so angry that i barely took notice to what the message said however it definately said something about clock frequency...i didnt even change the clock frequency.
WHY?!

HA HA HA HA HA

That issue is the TLB bug of the B2 phenoms. Install the BIOS fix.

The first step to recovery is admitting that you have a problem

TBH i do enjoy having a phenom purely because of the controversy and the dislike. also its rather exciting...you intel fanboys never talk about the joys of blue screens do you. plus the heat tht comes of my phenom keeps my legs warm. mmm

and btw before this goes completely of topic can someone conform its just a bios thing...and wer i can get the update

It could be your ram is clocked too high, that happened to me. Ran every cpu stress test available with no errors. Opened up bf2/photoshop/internet...CRASH.

Lol. First off, Intel is generally better. This isn't a 360-PS3 thing where it's a decision on which is more enjoyable for you, it's for the specs of it, and almost all Core 2's beat the Phenom's.

Plus, saying that we never talk about the "joys of blue screens" is such an assinine thing to say. I've never gotten a blue screen of death on my rig and I have an older Core 2, the E6600. You remind me of the PS3 fanboys who always say "have fun with your RRoD"....which is funny because I've had mine for over 1 1/2 years and not gotten the RRoD once.
