I tried overclocking per say my AMD Dx4-100 to 50mhz bus and doubled
clock mode.  It did work and gave me more than a 10% increase in
output; however, it was kinda unstable.  I got several lockups in
windows.  I didn't change any wait states or any other timing factors,
rather I changed my BIOS to auto detect.  What did I do wrong or what
shouold the wait states AT cycle, DRAM burst ratios be set to?

Also I tried the same thing on my DX2 - 66.  I tried changing the bus
speed to 40, but the machine wouldn't finish booting.  I had to change
my VLB Video to alt. timing just to get something on the monitor.  The
CMOS on this machine doesn't have and wait state figures, but I
suspect that there are some jumpers on the MB.  What can I do on this
one?
