Root virus airborne RC2 locking

I just started using Virus airborne this morning and am already have trouble with it. I like it alot so far, but when I first OCd to the max, the screen froze, then after a min rebooted. brought that down to 1152mhz then was smooth, linpack showing high 38s. When reinstalling apps from app monster, same thing happened again twice. I'm running the kernel that came with the ROM. Is this the ROM being glitchy or is it the overclock? any ideas? BTW, I was running baked snack before OC'd to 1152mhz.

Reboots are likely to be because of the Kernel/OC setup. Your CPU is genuine, and may or may not agree with a specific kernel at certain OC setting. One kernel may work at 1152, while another may not.

I would recommend playing with it, start high and work your way down until you find it stable. Or, switch to another kernel.
