I find it really strange that you have to set it to 3.3V.

What's your processor exactly? Isn't it a processor for a lower frequency that
somebody has sold to you pretending it will work at the higher frequency?

I never had to "overvolt" a processor. Only when I was trying to overclock. And
with the K6-2 it's a very bad idea to overclock.
