squallzell Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 (edited) Hey guys, I have a problem with overclocking my laptop. This only happens on certain drivers. On the driver 175.97 I can overclock to 700/1400/800, but on drivers such as 180.48 or 180.44 I can only overclock as high as 625/1250/825. If i go any higher than that my computer just completely restarts, it doesnt freeze or anything it just randomly shuts down and restarts. The thing is my temps are actually good cause i undervolted and everything. On 175.97 my temperatures are actually higher than 180.xxx yet the 180 drivers are causing my pc to restart. So if anyone has a solution it would very appreciated :) . Maybe some sort of problem with voltages or my power adapter of some sort, thx very much. :) Btw, my temps for gpu are around 73-75, same goes for cpu. Pc Specs: Xps m1530 8600m gt (Gddr3) 3 gb of ram ddr2 T7700 (2.4ghz) Vista 32-bit 7200 rpm hard drive Edited December 6, 2008 by squallzell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wook Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 yeah a lot of people are having this problem. i cant overclock as high using anything above 178.** Think you may just have to deal with it, or move back to the other driver that enables full overclocking.
