Alright, so last night I was messing with overclocking my system, and, of course, I reached the same limit as I had before, and it crashed. So, disheartened, I put my settings back down to what they were before, and low and behold, I got the exact blue screen as I did before, which involved the nvdisp.dll file. So, I figured it was video related then and I did a touch test of my components. Everything was fine to the touch, except for my HSI bridge chip on my video card. So, I rigged up a fan to blow on the HSI bridge to keep it cool. After that little tweak, I was able to push my FSB from 193 mhz where I had it before to 207mhz. I am now running at 200mhz completly stable, where some programs crash at 207mhz. I was amazed that all of my OC'in problems were caused by that little bridge chip. So, bottom line, if you have an AGP 6600GT and you are having any problems at all, just check your HSI bridge and make sure that it isn't burning hot.

Well, sorry for leading you astray....but why would I post that in the colling/overclocking section?
