Generally, the default setting is with the slider in the middle of the bar. Try this and then only a little at a time do you move it up, and see if everything is stable for a while before doing it again.

I presume there isn't a button on the program with "Reset Defaults" on, or an option in the menues.

I have the MSI software, so I'll have a look when I get home, and have a little play and see what I can find out for you

Yeah, when I first installed, the slider was in the middle. But after I changed it, everything was ok for a couple of weeks, but now it won't boot into windows normally, and so I CAN@T change it back to defaults. In fact, the Settings Tab that holds the offending click speed setting isn't there in Safe Mode. I need someway to try to get the chip reset, before windows starts! ARGH!! Its broke, and I sure its my fault! Doh!  :'( O0

The reason the settings option isnt available in SAFE mode is because it hasnt loaded the drivers for it at that point.
Have you tried uninstalling the card and letting it detect it again as its starting up? This may give you the option back again of its default setting or setting it at a lower rate  :-*

Which OS are you using Crazyjoe? I used selective startup a few weeks back when mine wouldnt go into windows at all (98SE) and if I left a couple of files out it started ok,cant remember which ones now,one was autoexec.bat I think other was config.sys but not 100% certain  :-*
