OC stops boot-video? Odd problem.

I've been OCing my N900 for quite a while now. For most of the time however, I'd boot into Maemo, go root, and load my OC profile with "kernel-config load oc1".
Recently, I decided to try setting it as default, as it has been completely stable with my OC settings.
I set it to default with "kernel-config default oc1".
The system works fine... but whenever I boot, I only see the first 3 or so frames of my boot-video. The -audio- plays, but the video "freezes".
The system does finish booting, but the video frame stays on the screen until Hildon-desktop actually loads up.
Note that that was with a max CPU of 950. If I limit it to 600, I get more of the video, but not all of it.
With the -default- configuration however, the video plays fine etc etc.

My configuration is as follows:

Code:

MINFREQ=125

MAXFREQ=950

FREQS="0:22,90 125:22,90 250:22,180 500:30,360 550:32,400 600:34,430 700:39,430 750:41,430 805:45,430 850:47,500 900:50,500 950:54,500 1000:58,500 1100:67,520 1150:71,520 "

SMARTREFLEX_VDD1=0

SMARTREFLEX_VDD2=0

GOVERNOR=ondemand

IGNORE_NICE_LOAD=1

UP_THRESHOLD=75

SAMPLING_RATE=100000

POWERSAVE_BIAS=0

Any ideas? I mean, I'm not sure its the voltages; I haven't had a crash in weeks with this profile, and it -does- finish booting...

Re: OC stops boot-video? Odd problem.

probably voltages but dont know for sure I disabled my boot video. I overclocked mine with ideal and it crashed all the time. I had to go through all the processor speeds and lock the processor at each speed while multitasking (web video + mplayer video) to find my minimum voltage. i then raised that by 2 or three. my phone still crashed at startup sometimes (nokia screen and then blank, no blinking dots). i then reduced max speed in steps down to 900 before i didnt crash on boot ever. My voltages ended up at 500:31 550:34 600:39 700:46 750:48 805:51 850:54 900:57 950:65 1000:72
I tried 950 at 72 and i still had problems on boot with max at 950.
