Was fooling around today in my BIOS, raised my Vcore to 1.6 and FSB to 215 and after saving and loading up it gives me some crap about it cannot boot from my disk drive. Havn't fooled with it since, it acts normal when starting up at defaults (200FSB and 1.5250 vcore). Was just wandering if anyone else has experience this or what should I turn off and junk.

P4 2.8ghz 800mhzFSB | Allied AL-B450E | ABIT IC7 | 1GB CorsairTwinX 400mhzDDR Dual Ch | BBA Radeon 9800Pro 128mb | 32gb WD Raptor & WD 120gb 7.2k rpm | SB Audigy LS w/ Creative T5400 5.1
 
your o/c too much. I believe it could be your RAM that cant handle it. Rasie the FSB in 2mhz increments and stress test the CPU each time to make sure it's stable

If you are trying 215 clock and using ram rated for 200 then you have it too high. Increasing vdimm and lossening the timming may help but really doubt it. Another thing to try is to disable dual channel but thats a long shot too. If you can, adjust the CPU:RAM ration to keep the ram from going past 200.
