Increase voltage ?

I've got a dumb question... when will we know when to increase the voltage while OC-ing ??

Unstable ?? Wat d'ya mean by unstable ?? If it restarts by itself ??

when i over clock i increase the cpu voltage only by about 1 it just helps with stability.
you will tell when your cpu is unstable you will get the bsod and your pc will restart.

blue screen of death. it hapens when you over clock your cpu/memory/graphics card to much. it is just a windows screen that says it is shuting down your pc so that it is not damaged. just lower the fsb a bit and it will be fine.
