Set the MOB to defaults.
Adjust the CPU voltage and not the multiplier.

This may help....

I had the ASUS M5A78L-M LX Plus Motherboard and I just upgraded to the ATX board for more future upgrade to sli or crossfire. Anyway, I had a stable 4.6 Ghz by just playing with the voltage and multiplier. Now I cannot do the same. I can only overclock using the FSB but that changes my ram frequencies to different settings and does not run stable at all.

The motherboard I have not is the "1 x ASRock 990FX Extreme3 AM3+ AMD 990FX + SB950 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS". Which is what I've been having trouble with. The Asus board seemed to OC pretty well.
