Back off on the overclocking settings until the system runs in a stable manner. Explanation Configuring a motherboard to run with a higher multiplier than what the CPU is specified to use is called overclocking. If the system becomes unstable and crashes frequently the multiplier may be set higher than the CPU can handle. To resolve this lower the multiplier until the system becomes stable again. The real-time clock on the motherboard is not a factor in this scenario and has no role in overclocking. If the power supply is set to the wrong voltage system components can be damaged but not cause the behaviour described in the scenario. BIOS firmware is not factor in overclocking issues.
