@Red
Still overclocked ??
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

Barely. I'm only running my Thunderbird850 at 892Mhz. I fail to see where OC'ing should affect it. There are so many different X86 CPUs with so many different FSB and multiplier settings that I don't see specific timing routines being written for every single CPU made. IF a OC cpu is rock stable, what's the difference with an actual CPU at that speed?

But yes I will try downgrading the CPU to 850 if you really think it will help. Does  that mean I have to go back to a crappy 100mhz FSB?
100x8.5 was the stock setting but the FSB is easily stable at 133Mhz. Grrrrr!

Will it help ? Don't know  :-o

But this has been a topic on the Amithlon-maillist and Bernies
explaination was that his JIT might produce code-sequences
that no compiler or sane asm-coder (sane asm-coder ? I must
be jokeing) would use, and that systems that seem to run o.k.
on "normal" code could still fail with his JIT.

1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.

"sane asm-coder ? I must be jokeing"

You could be right there. I've given the new version a (very) quick run and it does seem to be an improvement. It's certainly faster. As for more stable, well I've not yet tested it thoroughly. But now it's running at a decent speed on my PII/233 I can give it a try.

It really hates old or badly installed DirectX. Maybe that's the problem.
