Hi, im all new to this overclocking thing. And i have a GeForce 5200 FX AGPx8 128MB. And i installed and tried RivaTuner and overclocked my graphic card to 300MHz Core Clock and 450 MHz Memory Clock. I decided to play battlefield 2142, i started then game and so good so far but then when i join a server my computer restarts. Is this because of me overclocking the GPU or could it be a virus?
And which is the best speed to overclock my 5200 FX.

you have probably OC'ed it too much, the computer card has turned itself of to avoid damage. go back to stock clock speed.

wat is the stock speed... Those cards wernt made to be ocers.. Just rasie it up a lil bit and see if it works and keep doing that until u get another restart and id go down a lil bit more just to be on the safe side and u should be ok.. But ur in a def need of a upgrade!
