i was having this problem... it was suprisingly caused by my dvdrw drive not working with my new setup (took it from an old one) ended buying a new one and now it works perfectly... have a go at unplugging it to see if it boots

i mean if its set to 10x multi it wont boot over 2.3 ... i have to set it to auto ... which sets it to 10 anyway

i get that also... its one hell of a . thing, ive been advised to try different bios versions, havent got round to it though

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Onl...ue_OCZ_144.html if i had the money id go for OCz, very good, highly overclockable ram

DDR4000 ... wow that must be like lightening ^_^

a good choice would have been the Zalman CNPS9500-LED Aero Flower (Socket 939/754/478/775) CPU Cooler (HS-015-ZA) http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Zalman_CNPS9500.jpg

yer.... lol ive been told that perhaps my cpu isnt really agreeing with my motherboard, also flashing my bios to 623/3 or 623/2 and adding more vcore might work. im currently at 704/2bta

yer i guess i do... if i get the job i was interviewed for today then ill buy some

haha of course ... ive been oc'in for the past week... i did have 2.4 stable and tested... but then it went un stable during a 5 hour period when i was on CS:S anyway asking for suggestions helps me to try out things i havent thought of.

Quite confused as to what you mean there, but the ram bit i thought might be the problem.

help please lol

i copied and pasted some one elses and then changed it for my own Also those settings didnt work, upping my DRAM voltage to 2.9 and my CPU VID Special Control to 110 got my cpu to 2.32... not a big step but its a step, it reboots if i go any higher

well done on your clock mate, i will have a go at your settings and post my results

i did at one point... it still wouldnt boot Edit: ... and yes what a stupid typo
