Overclocking E4500

I tried OC to my CPU E4500 by using nTune. It seemed frozen to my PC, so I shutted my PC down. I tried again, but it got me disconnected by blue screen. Does anyone know why that happened?
 
Had you been overclocking in small incriments? Or did you try to do a large overclock initially?

Also, when do you get the blue screen? When you try to boot or when you try to overclock again?

Before, it was 2.200. I was trying to 2.400, that is what happened.

Blue screen I did not try again OC.
 
Well I have my E4400 from it's stock clock of 2 gHz at 2.6 gHz just from adjusting the FSB. So I don't see why yours shouldn't be able to handle 2.6

Have you only had the blue screen once? Or does it happen regularly now?
 
I've never used nTune because I've never bought an nVidia chipset, so I can't really give you any advice or help using the program. The only overclocking I've ever done has been in the BIOS, and whenever I get to a clock that part of my hardware can't take it won't boot for my to get a blue screen or a program freeze, so I can't really say why it has done it. My guess would be that it has something to do with the drivers that nTune uses to change clock values, but that's just a guess.

I don't think an overclock should cause a blue screen; I would've thought that if you'd overclocked too high, your computer would have either frozen or restarted unexpectedly.
 
I am learning to do with computer stuff, but I want to learn more. I think this forum helps a lot, but sometimes it is complicated and sometimes it is resolved my issues that I asked. I tried to do my best as I can. I am still interesting in learning some more about computer stuff. Ok, I am wondering does anyone know how good to do a nVidia nTune program or help me to do with BIOS? Please, teach me that, hehehe. ;)
 
Don't overclock through Windows, it changes things and you don't know about it when it does... things like the voltages, you'll want to keep an eye on them!

Do it through the BIOS, that way you can keep an eye on everything!
