    I cleared CMOS and got into the BIOS. The boot order is currently:

    1. Floppy
    2. WD Caviar 640GB
    3. WD Caviar 640GB
    4. Seagate 750GB
    5. DVD-RW
    6. DVD-RW

    The two WD drives are in RAID 0. After getting the BIOS settings back to how they were, the computer booted up just fine!

    This is the 4th or 5th time it's crashed today, though, so something's unstable. What do you recommend I change to try to stabilize it?

    I apologize for my newness; I'm entirely new to overclocking. I'm looking forward to learning how all of this works. Thanks.

    Edit: Just rebooted again out of the blue. Happened very quickly and gave no error.

    Edit 2: I tried a 75 MHz overclock without touching anything else but RAM (running 1:1) and things are running stable so far. Perhaps it will stay that way. Here's hoping.

    Edit 3: Still can't get this thing stable. I'm running at 2.55 GHz now and don't know what to do to get it to stop crashing. Just been slowly upping the FSB, but I can't keep doing that because the core temperatures are rising (currently idling at 39 C).
