I just reebooted after adding a fan and it throws me into bios.....IN red letters to the right it red this,

during the last boot-up,your syatem hung for an improper external cpu setting.your system is now working in safe mode (bus:100 mhz,dram:100 mhz,pci:33 mhz). To optimize the cpu performance and reliability,make sure the cpu speed conforms to the specifications of your cpu. I have been ripped off huh?
My P3V4x does that when the clockgen overheats. It'll hang on reboot and I have to hold down the power button to turn it off, and on reboot it drops me into the bios with that message.
It only happens when your last attempt didn't post, so it drops you to the lowest FSB setting, and tells you to fix it.
But that's the p3v4x, and it's overclocked, so I honestly don't know what to tell you... Sorry, this was a useless post...

I've just picked up a fault in the AE35 unit. It's going to go 100% failure in 72 hours...

ok...my temps are now leveling off aty about 56 there is a cooling prob here....I mean im using the alphapal6035,I think maybe the 8 lb clip is not putting the right pressure on the slug?maybe i will trim the foam (rubber?)supports ont the cpu?
NO don't cut the little feet off.... it is not the machanical pressure, or rather the lack there of, that is causing your problem, it's the HS itself, not able to handle the heat produces by the CPU... I had my Duron600 at 895Mhz on HSF and it was running +62c...... I switched to h2o and the temps came down to +24c ..... you need a bigger HS, or switch to h2o, but whatever you do, don't remove those little rubber feet, they are there for a very good reason.....

WOE, I second Rotor, Those rubber feet ARE there for a reason - to protect the slug. Enough slugs have been damaged on T-birds and Durons WITH the feet, if you trim the feet, you will almost certainly chip the core.

rotor I didnt trim the feet I just cleaned off the thermal paste(replaced) and reseated the heatsink,It has been alot better since then,I am now averageing 50 to 51 degres celcius It may have been slightly cocked to a side causing the problem,but its better now.thanxs
I use a screw clamp mechanism on my blocks, and I found that just the slightest tention is more than enough to compress the rubber feet, to the point where the block's surface just touches the slug, that's all you need, it just needs to touch, any extra pressure on the slug is bad, and will do nothing to improve thermal contact,

In the A7V Bios, Boot Section, set it to: reset configuration data, and manually change your settings back. This should get rid of the red letter problem.
