Well, I had this experience once, and I just wanted to share Grin

One time, I was bored, so I raised EVERYTHING in nover fully. Tongue
It worked for good few seconds with gbc4nspire, but then, it crashed and something awesome(?) happened. Big smile
Well, half of my stuffs were semi-wiped out. Technically, they went invisible. O.o
When I deleted the folders (with invisible stuffs) and reset the calc, it came back like a ghost! Cheesy
The only way to fix it was to re-install OS (Thank god I had a copy of OS 3.1)
So, moral: Don't overclock more than you're supposed to Big smile

hmm maybe this should be moved to humor or something.

Well, just plain memory corruption Tongue

Happened to me while I was testing Nover at the time critor was creating it still, I got with undeletable folders / ghost items everywhere which caused me to reformat actually.

So yes, "limits" aren't there for nothing Tongue

Yes, this is caused by AHB overclocking. Typically around 75MHz seems to be the breaking point for AHB on CX, so it's good to stay quite a bit below that. However, as far as I know, CPU overclocking can only lead to a reboot at most.

Interesting experience. Wink

You now get the proof that I was not kidding with the red "Dangerous!" warning in Nover Tongue

Maybe you should be a little more specific with the warnings, like for CPU overclocking "May cause reboot", and for AHB overclocking "May corrupt filesystem"

I'll check if I can make this fit someway.

Do I let the AHB warning level at 75MHz ?

Probably should go with 70MHz just to be safe.

Also if you only overclock your calc for cooking purposes, I doubt it will work, plus your calc will smell weird in class. Better stay within stable overclocking limits.
