Pardon me for starting a new thread, but I haven't found one on the subject, and any of the threads that I have found are old...

I have an Intel q6700 that is mildly overclocked to 3.25gHz and I am getting validate errors. My rig is perfectly overnight stable on Prime95 and Orthos.

Is overclocking the cause of errors, or is it something else.

Good question. I have one of my systems overclocked as well. I found it usually takes a few hours to get WUs to start running correctly. I have no idea why but it happens every time I build a new rig.

Give it 8 hours and see if you continue to get errors. It is likely the problem will go away.

Good Luck!
