I wanted to experiment the full cpu power of my calculator so i overclocked it and put the cpu frequency on my calc all the way up to make gpsp run well
so it did run very well but after i turned it off for a while and turned it back on, i realized that it had crashed, losing all of my roms and making me install the os back on and ndless
well i did that but when i put gpsp on and try to transfer a rom on my computer to my calc, it would only allow me to have one on the calc.
There are no other files on the calc except ndless and gpsp files and b4 i had many other roms that were on it
im pretty sure that it is bcause of the nover crash pls help!!!

First of all, why did you ignore the warning that nover gave you? I'm pretty sure it is a memory corruption by over-overclocking.
What you have to do is performing FULL-RESET. Here's the step:
1. hold EE + DOC + ENTER
2. While holding those keys, press the reset key at the back.
3. some menu will pop up. choose delete everything. (Of course, this will delete EVERYTHING, including your game saves)
4. install OS again.

Indeed, the nover warnings should be taken in account. Especially the AHB warning. They are there for a reason. While going too high on the CPU (and maybe Base too, i don't know) will only result in a reboot, putting the AHB frequency too high can cause severe memory corruption.

Maybe the "Dangerous" warning is not strong enough.

Maybe have a version that refuses apply a config if it goes above the safe level?
Then a dev version or something that doesn't, to what purpose that could realistically serve I have no idea :P

I don't see that having two separate versions would help. The point of the tool is to allow people to speed up their calcs, and since all of them accept different levels of speed a separate versions would restrict this. Besides which, people would just seek out the advanced version anyways. In my opinion if someone is too foolish to ignore the warnings that are clear and there for a reason, then whatever happens to them is their own fault. Warnings and Readme files are their for a reason people, don't ignore them! Furthermore, if you really don't know what you are doing with advanced settings, don't mess with them!

Maybe there could be a multi-step warning. If you go till 10% it says "Dangerous", if you go further say till 20% it would say "Serious Hazard" and any further then that would say "You calc may go nuclear" or something like that.

is there a chance that there would be hidden files that would take up space

What you should do this time is follow Nover's warnings :P
