I have an AMD K6-2 300.

I tried to overclock it to 350MHz, and it crashes almost instantly.

I tried to overclock to 333MHz, and it looked like it was running fine. But I
discovered that it would crash after several hours of intense testing (Tiger
running automatically for a long time).

Do you suggest that I can solve the overclocking problem by a little voltage
increase? First I have to check if my MB supports it.

Also I have to check the temperature increase. In my office I always have around
30°C, and my hardware already suffers from it.
