        History? Try to flash the BIOS.

          Sounds just like when I OC'ed my 65nm Core 2 Duo and didn't enable CPU load line calibration on my Asus P5QL Pro motherboard, IIRC. Albeit the one mentioned, is ATX.
          Without load line calibration, I would be required to retry for it to POST! I would just get power and fans and nothing else, until I power cycled, up to several times roughly then once I got in the OS, it was stable, IIRC, LOL.

          For laptops, I'm wondering if it's bad SMD caps. People here, have been suspecting NEC/Tokin caps that have been used in laptops.
