    how do you overclock?
    easy?
    can it shorten your CPU life?

    it may burn, right?

    It may crash and burn, but thats not a problem for me as I can get parts extremly cheap

    To overclock, you have to tinker around in the BIOS, but some processors can't be overclocked so you'll need to reset the BIOS if you put in the wrong one :bugeye:

    I think he is asking why you choose to run Windows ME as one of your two OS's.

    because Windows ME has many new features , more stylish than Windows 98/95.

    stability is good too.

    and, most important, i can play Games.

    Windows XP is cool.

    but can't play many old games.

    a dual boot system is the solution.
