NCC10281982B Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 If I select anything above 220 in manual mode my system fails to post and I get a message saying that the overclock failed. I can use the 10% overclock. Vcore is 1.6 and I have a ram divider. Please LORD don't let it be a flaky cpu or mobo. (I just spent a bunch of money.) Anyways... This is the rig in my sig. ---------------------- CPU-Z version 1.28.5 ---------------------- CPUID Output ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Number of CPUs 1 APIC ID 0 Name AMD Athlon 64 2800+ Code name NewCastle Specification AMD Athlon 64 Processor 2800+ Family/Model/Stepping FC0 Extended Family/Model F/C Brand ID 4 Package Socket 754 Core Stepping DH7-CG Technology 0.13 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supertech Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 My guess is your memory is the holdup. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerm Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 Have you tried lowering your HTT Multi or loosening your mem timings a tad? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
markiemrboo Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 Looks like a fairly common problem. I probably wouldn't have chose that board after reading the review on it to be honest. THE BAD: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC10281982B Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 Thanks for the info gang but I still can't get it to oc. I'm using bios 1.6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
markiemrboo Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 What's your HTT multiplier at? 4x? Try 3x .... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
