OCing a 366 to 550 on an old HP No go!

[NIUBurned]

Ok, im upgrading this guys computer (HP 4535) using my old celeron that I KNOW will run at 550 at default voltage.

His computer uses an old 810 mobo, SUPPORTS 100mhz fsb through jumpers, and uses pc100 sdram.

HOWEVER. I cannot get passed the windows 98 loading screen. The computer doesnt "lock up" because there is movement on the lower part of the screen. The computer just refuses to finish loading up windows. I was able to use his restore cd while running at 550, but not load windows.

I removed the old stick pc100 just to see if that was a problem, which it wasnt. I just have NO CLUE. This is why i hate pre built systems

The processor maybe telling the MB it's a 66 MHz chip, so run the PCI/AGP bus at the stock settings. But with the MB jumpers set to 100MHz you need the 2/3 multiplyer for most cards to work correctly. On the old slot 1 Celerons you could tape a pin to fool the MB, you maybe out of luck in this case.
