still able to boot into windows ?

with this, i can't even go past the BIOS into the Windows booting screen. doh.gif i'm seriously thinking of stopping OCing until i get my new rig.. it panicked the crap outta me.. suddenly 470gb.. sweat.gif

i think it's scary.. laugh.gif

anwyay, anyone can help me go past 239mhz? so far, i tried cold and warm booting while holding "Insert" but until now, no prevail..

already use divider?should try it...mine just use Kingston KVR 512...
can get until 265Mhz for memory...after that...cannot...coz gonna burn my processor
using stock fan only sweat.gif
anyway...just read the overclocking thread....i might find sumthin to help u...
just like me man rclxm9.gif

help em pleaseeeeeeee.. laugh.gif my mobo does allow manual mem divider setting.. heh..

What mobo r u using?
U sure it locks your PCI speed? Check it with clockgen

MSN K8N Neo2 FX. hmm.. clockgen reports my PCI speed to be 33.34

QUOTE(sniper69 @ Feb 14 2007, 11:34 AM)
doh.gif, god...how come i could forget that, yeah viper, check your PCI bus, it's lock or not, sometimes, when increasing FSB, the PCI bus also rise up...doh.gif
*
how do i decrease it then? unsure.gif

QUOTE(sempronic @ Feb 16 2007, 05:43 AM)
why not use bios?
if use bios to OC does it also raise the PCI bus??
not right? hmm.gif
can change to 470GB??wahh??can OC HDD also??
hehehe...joking onli.... tongue.gif
*
not sure, i used BIOS to OC, but anything beyond 240mhz, Windows just won't boot past the statup screen.. laugh.gif

lol. it can OC HDD, it'll be so darn cool wei.. tongue.gif make it run faster than Raptor drives.. rclxm9.gif

this is screenie of my clockgen.

owh that...
normally, when overclocking in windows (not sure in BIOS though - but my PCI locked), increasing FSB, might as well increasing PCI bus, not too sure why's that, but it happens, so, by using ClockGen, uncheck "Ignore GSB/PCI", and you should be able overclock without worrying about PCI bus anymore...

if i'm not mistaken, that your problem, you can't go beyond 239MHz right, and from what my bro XP, just like i said previous post, just set it to 250 or watever you can get, (sure it won't boot), just hard reboot, hold "Insert" key while pressing power on button, this will bring you into boot-safe option, but still your BIOS is at 250 now, just hit F1 "Continue Anyway" and you should be able to run Windows...
*

well.. i tried both hard and soft rebooting when you last told me to and it still didn't work. Windows just refused to boot up. sad.gif

anyway, downloaded the latest version of ClockGen. i've already checked the GSB/PCI tick-box.. so will try it out later to see if it actually works.. tongue.gif

i still can't. doh.gif just tried just now. i've checked the "Ignore GSB/PCI" check box and then proceeded to reboot my pc.

changed it to 250mhz, can't even past memory test.. doh.gif

left it there for almost 2 hours and no progress..

how? sad.gif

at this point, i really no idea, because, normally, when overclocking, i used to test one by one, it's CPU, Motherboard and RAM, first thing i'm going to do is, finding max CPU clock, by using lowest memory divider (DDR200), i can pump all the way to max possible without worrying bout my RAM hit the stock clock (DDR400), after that, finding max RAM clock - this use either 1:1 or CPU multiplier set to lower than stock. try squeeze the RAM from tightest timing to loosest timing - this RAM tweak actually pretty take a while smile.gif, in theory, the loossest timing, provide more headroom in overclocking smile.gif, after that, max CPU FSB can go, this is interesting, as all CPU and RAM goes to lowest as possible. at this point, i use DDR200 with CPU multiplier 4x, from there, increase the CPU FSB until hit to max, IIANM, i've got 440x5 thumbup.gif...
so that's my overclocking experience, and normally without having problem to load it to windows...perhaps your RAM already it's ceiling? unsure.gif
*

laugh.gif lol. now that's why your OC-ing techniques are so familiar. read it off a OC guide for K8 proc's.. tongue.gif

the funny thing is.. this mobo that i'm using.. doesn't actually allow me to chane the RAM divider. blink.gif werid huh? my friend's MSI can actually do it but mine just can't. it's Auto i guess. sad.gif

but it can't be.. D-43 chips run max at 235mhz? shocking.gif rolleyes.gif sad.gif

doh.gif, yeah...this forum is good right thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif
regarding memory divider, did you update BIOS? aiyoh, D-43 runs at 235MHz is a waste...tongue.gif
*

of course.. thumbup.gif biggrin.gif

i did it once, but didn't dare to do it again.. exactly my point, D-43 running at 235mhx. waste aje.. doh.gif my friend who sold them to me said he could reach 250mhz ealisy with his DFI board.. but mine's MSI.. so.. sweat.gif

any solutions around this? hmm.gif

have you tried the RAM module into DFI's mobo? (or other mobo), if can go higher than 239MHz, then it's mobo la...also, get other RAM and fix into your MSI mobo, and if they can go like D-43 or not smile.gif
*

the problem is, i do not have a DFI mobo. or rather, i do not know of anyone who has a DFI mobo who is actually willing to let me lend their rig for a test tun. doh.gif

i'm sure that D-43's can run faster than this. no way that this is the ceiling for them. and that's the main reason why i bought these RAM's. doh.gif and now, tak jalan. doh.gif

you got a DFI board? whistling.gif
