Another one about core2 duo problems...

Hi guys,
What is overclocking and how to avoid it? I have problems with my core2duo processor - the system freezes from time to time. I have filtered active sensing and Scope does not share any IRQ with other devices but still... Sometimes system freezes.
Any ideas?

If you haven't any idea what overclocking is, you've already avoided it!
The first things to check are:
IRQ sharing (found via device manager, you can post the list here for help).
CPU & system temperatures, voltages & other 'sensor' readings, try using Lavalys Everest (there is a demo version). For extra credit you can try running memory & cpu stability tests to determine if the system is the issue or if it's really a problem with Scope.
Is your Scope card seated properly and are all contacts clean?

do you have a lot of USB devices attached?
you may need to try the selective suspend trick.

How much power does your Power Supply deliver to your system?
