If you post some more specs: motherboard model/cpu/Ram/temperatures,etc I might be able to help. I would personally run a Memtest session before even attempting to boot into Windows after any overclock changes though.

My Current system:
Asus P5e mobo
Intel e6750@2.66GHz - OC to 3.2GHz
2 x 2Gb OCZ Reaper 8500 DDR2
GTX275 XXX

Overclocked by changing FSB from 333 to 400 MHz, disabled speedstep etc set PCIE freq to 100 and left voltages on all AUTO as manual voltage settings can be unpredictable.
Stable at 3.2 GHz, idle temps around 30-32 and under full orthos load around 50-52 (ingame around mid 40s)
CPU-z reports core voltage as 1.287-1.304 ( manually setting voltage produces weird results and erratic problems)
