BSOD on Cold Start

[Diablo]

Yesterday, after having a variety of BSODs for four hours due to Kaspersky being unhappy, I finally managed to sort my big rig, with safe mode and a bios flash or two.

Later, I OCed the CPU to 4.0 GHz, played a bit of crysis and left it. The computer had been on for four hours, with restarts, but temperature hadn't gone.

This morning, I tried to boot...BSOD...same 1.35V, did it twice, just after the POST screens. I increased the core voltage by .00625V and that did the trick. Just wondering if anyone had seen anything like it.

Also has anybody got a recomendation for 140mm fans on 140mm mountings, one of the blades hit a cable tie hard and broke of, hitting between my fingers...drew blood.

Could a mod move this to the CPU overclocking section...I didn't see that the first run down, sorry

I know that on my old system it would always give me a bsod off a cold start if I let it try and get most of the way through loading windows.. If I just hit reset as soon as windows started to load, the second time it would boot perfectly fine. Pita but there ya go.

Alright, as long as someone else has a similar problem, I guess its to do with the V core varying a bit with temp...just as long as its not unknown

Yeah I would think it is to do with the resistance to be honest. I wouldn't worry about it if you only had to up it by 0.00625v

I haven't experienced any BSODs with my sytem OC at the moment (E2140 @3GHz on 1.35v - 1.6GHz stock on 1.325v)

Dang that's a good OC...then again those pentiums are really good overclockers. If I was doing a nice cheap build, with overclocking on the list they would be my port of call. Not ideal for less tech savvy friends/relatives. Why am I always the helpdesk for computer problems?

Same here buddy.

Yeah this CPU will do 3.44GHz (112.5% OC) on 1.5375v
