Help for NUB plz?

Hi all, I am completely new to the world of overclocking, but when I bought my computer I made sure it could handle some abuse.

So I will give you the hardware list first...


Asus Crosshair mobo, with AMD Athlon 64X2 4600 (2.41 ghtz)
Thermaltake big typhoon cpu cooling
dual Asus 7900GS vid cards in sli
2x 1GB Corsair XMS Pro2 ram
Thermaltake ToughPower 750watt PSU
320GB sata2 Western Digital HD
dual LG 18x DVD burners
all tucked neatly into the Thermaltake Mozart Tx tower case

I have never overclocked it because ever since I got it I have had a problem with the BSOD popping up usually when I am unrarring files, or moving large files, but I havent been able to get a handle on the BSOD so I figure I might as well go ahead with the overclocking... couldn't hurt right?

any suggestions on how to get rid of the BSOD's or what would be a good place to start overclocking would be appreciated
