Comment: I'm testing this now on both my p4 2.8 and my 2500+, both are oc'd. My 2500+ crashed after 9 min, which is ok, I'm still playing with this, however it did reach test 2 of the "blend" test. My p4, is going stable still after 2 hours about now, light flickering, however it has not reached test 2 yet... Is this of any concern?

Reply: Indication of insufficient Vcore. It could also be voltage drop from either the board or PSU. Increase Vcore one notch would normally allow prime to run for hours.

Reply: Well, it's weird, it eventially passed the first test, and moved onto another, the 2500+ to test 2 without failing or passing. MAybe they use random testing or something, or it's a different sequence for amd to p4. Still going though, and it's taking a 1.7v to keep it stable for this long (stable prime wise, I haven't had a problem with anything else since I increased the vcore to 1.6, but I'm dead set on being prime stable). I haven't noticed much temp increase either, so I'm happy, and I'm at 250FSB now, where before I couldn't get past 245. All still with a 5:4 ratio though.
