i have noticed on all 3 of my overclocked computers that certain chess engines don't run well, in particular junior 8/ hiarcs8 & shredder 7/704. on a single overclocked comp if any of the above engines are running; the computer will either reboot/ freeze/ crash or give an error meesage, after playing only for a few hrs.this happens each time i have tried to play eng vs eng matches using any of the above engines. these comps have been stable for all other programmes, inculding chess programmes; i have been able to play the following engines-the king engines (both 3.12d and 3.23); fritz8/7 df7/ the tigers for weeks on end in eng vs eng matches without the above problem; initially i thought that the problem was with the software but after setting the hardware to default settings; junior8 vs f8 are running smoothly for well over a week. i am particularly interested with AMD overclocked systems as i plan to buy an overclocked modified dual (XP modified to MP guaranteed to run at 2400 mhz)
