Thank you Mark. I have been running Prime95 for about 20 hours now without a
problem. Vcore is set to 1.55, but reading 1.58 volts (via SpeedFan), so I
am pretty close. This would make sense of the problems I encounter trying to
reduce it to 1.525 volts (where it reads 1.55). I could get it run (although
I didn't do any torture tests) at 1.375volts and 166FSB. And it ran at 46C
with 100%cpu.

The house temp is about 65 F right now and the XP3200+ is running at 50C,
100% cpu via Prime95. My AMD64 3700+ is running 28C idle and 38C under full
load, so ambient temps are a huge factor.
