Yes, I have resetted the CMOS after update. But still can't lock the PCI clock at 33.3 MHz. Why?

I just noticed that the tforce 550 mainboard I used is revision 1.2 (imprinted on the board)

From biostar website, they already have revision 1.3 board.

I wonder if I can ask the shop to replace my mainboard to the latest revision? This could  be a solution for locking the PCI clock, as I am sure the latest revision overcome the problem...
*
i forgot what revision of my board. when u bought this mobo?
i bought my mobo before long time ago (early august 2006 i think)
i'm not sure if they can replace ur board with other revision unless ur mobo is faulty, then they change with new one tongue.gif

I bought this mobo yesterday, after I got PM from soulfly (I asked him, which is suitable and affordable mainboard).

actually bro soulfly give a very good solution. tforce550 is overclockable and affordable with UV-slot 'DFi-look-alike'. but i'm not sure about the revision that really affect the pci lock clock thingy. sweat.gif. i've already sold my tforce long time ago tongue.gif try googling around about this pci lock thingy. wink.gif

anyway, what software u check the pci lock clock?

clockgen utility from http://www.cpuid.com/clockgen.php

I am using the latest version of this software.

Well, I thought u are using the same mainboard as mine. So, what mainboard do u use now? Sure a bit better than the old one.
*
i forgot about the bios setting in tforce550. do you find the PCI Clock Lock menu (i dont know which mobo i found this) tongue.gif
i'm using Biostar Tforce 550 (same as u) before but sold it after almost 2 months use tongue.gif. Now i'm using low-end mobo only (abit nf-m2s not nview series) pair with sempron 2800. this system only standby for vista only laugh.gif.

that why I am not satisfied with my mainboard. I've spent RM 290 to buy this mainboard. I do not think I should spend money again to look another mainboard.. sigh... what a bad timing...

I got no problem changing mainboard without reinstalling Windows XP, I just using sysprep utility, and voila, take only 6 - 10 minutes to complete migration from old mainboard to new mainboard. Personally I think that buying a new mainboard is not a problem if you have a lot of money, but i am in tight budget nowaday.

actually no need to change mobo laa bro. i think there's a solution for your mobo. what proc u use now bro?

nevermind, I know you are helpful. I'll try again by using another old bios file to see whether I can lock the PCI bus clock.

Let see if anyone have solution. Maybe allenutra or soulfly get a workaround, who know...?  wish.gif


Added on February 1, 2007, 8:14 pmsorry friends here  notworthy.gif

I just found that in BIOS I should MOS or AOS in the overclocking navigator engine (ONE) first, then can see the effect of PCI lock. Previously I am using normal setting at Overclock Navigator, which make the clockgen software render that PCI lock is unlocked.

Oh my god, If I know this earlier, I would not rant a bit here. Sorry again, friend.

my result on overclocking. any advise to go higher? I've tried to use HTT mul 267 MHz (where 267 x 3 = 801 MHz) but it failed SP2004 priming test within 12 secs. What should I do?

by the way this is memory setting that I read via a64tweaker software and cpuz. I leave the default timing 5-5-5-15. Any chance to tighten?

dont use the biostar oc utility. i've experience this before. suddenly it will automatically change ur settings to your previous setting that save in the log or wuteva (and sometimes i dont understand with this thing which will set ur vcore, htt and multiplier by itself). Use ClockGen would be better

plz help me soulfly notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

try uninstall Biostar TForce OC Utility. I think this software running at windows startup and set the ur settings to 2.2GHz. Believe me, that utility is really wonderful at the first time but it become s*x after u using it tongue.gif

i've trying this utility before. Push my proc until 2.75GHz until my pc restart suddenly (becoz lack of vcore). Then, cannot start windows until i realize that this utility is the problem. cool.gif

i noe u just check vcore and clock using this utility. wut i mean, everytime this software running, even u want to check vcore and clock (not to oc) it will change ur setting laugh.gif

from the result in this thread,
brisbane need around 1.5v to reach 3.1GHz
and from the post, Agena need around 1.3v only to reach 3.1GHz

already try the lowest divider (DDR400), loosen and tighten the timing will not work also sweat.gif

temperature with full load below 50C as i open the case, put on the top of the bookcase with under the full blast aircond rolleyes.gif

Added on April 28, 2007, 12:25 pmone question i would like to ask

when put under the aircond, my systems' (i meant proc, heatsink, chipset, board etc) temperature is around 15C-22C. Then after sometimes when i remove from the bookcase, it really hard to boot when i overclock a little bit (e.g 2.5GHz) like before. Need to wait the systems to get some 'hot' then only can poc a little bit like before.

is this cold boot? sweat.gif

almost same situation with me..but for me, it happened when my windsor OCed to 2.4GHz and above..when switch on the pc, the monitor will show blank screen for about 30 seconds, then it will proceed BUT with th stock clock and voltage..
so what i did was, i entered the bios, exit and save, then ok  smile.gif

my one is after playing with higher clock last nite with the air con, cannot playing with the lower clock. need to play with stock voltage, clock around 5 minutes than can play with lower clock overclocking

when my system is put under the full blast aircon, it boot easily when play with higher voltage (1.575v~1.7v) with higher clock (2.9GHz~3GHz)

but

in the same situation (under the full blast aircon), my system cant even boot when i put a voltage (1.4v~1.5v) and play with lower clock like (2.3GHz~2.7GHz)

except

when i clear cmos and my system set back to stock (2.0GHz at 1.2v), under the same situation also can still boot cool.gif
