Are there any settings that i should try as i have never overclocked a machine as i dont normally like to run things hot and stress them etc. Thought I would with this unit though as it runs at 1.6Ghz.Is the overclocking done in the software from asrock or is it in Bios??I will stress test it before putting MP on it to make sure it is steady. The other thing I have a question about is this:I am not using the TV side of MP on the Asrock as I will just use the TV tuner in the TV itself. I noticed in the early posts that someone had stuttering and it was to do with the MP heartbeat. Does that mean i still need to install TV server but just not use it??I look forward to any replies as i do hope to get this beautifull little box clocked and MP on there tonight. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> in advance.****UPDATE*****Well i managed to install MP1.1 and also Xfactor skin, Moving pictures, My TVseries & SAFF etc.All working fine appart from the fact that I think the wireless is far to slow for this use. I have over 1k albums on my server and literally 1000's of movies. When i scanned the folders it took hours (which was to be expected) after all that was done, which was very late last night i went to goto my music but it took around 15mins for the albums to show. I can only assume that this was largely due to the very poor wireless connection. This isnt because my router is slow but because wireless is just slow anyway. I will run a network cable to the Asrock from my 1Gb switch as soon as i get home and hopefully things will just work then.Apart from that though I pushed my clock up to give a tad over 1.85Ghz and the fan incresed slightly to keep it cool. To be honest I know it isnt silent but you would be pushed to hear it that much. Certainly no louder than a dvd drive spinning away.When you are watching a movie you certainly wouldnt hear it. I jacked the fan speed upto max to see how much noise there would be and it was quite loud. Hopefully it wont ever get to that but i would think about changing the fan for a quiter one if need be.****UPDATE*****Connected the Asrock upto the gigabit Lan and all is so much better. Movies, music and TV series etc are all nice now.Little slow on moving pictures sometimes but as that is quite graphics hungry i am not suprised. Will fiddle with the thumbnail quality settings etc to speed it up a little.Overall VERY HAPPY with this little system and I may even upgrade it later on with an SSD, quieter fan and more memory.<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> to all for highlighting this little box of joy <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />RegardsKev</blockquote>
