Well i can but fsb goes only to 205 on 210 windows won't start, do i have
to put htt on 3 and lower multiplier, because in windows i can do whatever
i want from easytune 5 ! I have f4 bios ! cpu is a64 3500 winchester

It could be that memory should be run asynchroneously.

Try this:
- cpu voltage 1.5 or 1.55
- ram at 2.6 or 2.7 volt
- Ctrl F1 from main menu page in bios brings Advanced chipset menu
point up. In there set memory fsb to 166, agp to 67, cpu fsb to 240
and HTT to 4x.

That will make memory run 166 x (240/200) = 200, and cpu is OC by 20%.

You can download clockgen for your motherboard

www.clockgen.com

A trick is to set in bios before clockgen agp at 67, cpu fsb to 201,
mem fsb to 166. That will lock agp and pci.

Then there is also a point with sata. Nvidia sata is not locked to
agp/pci.

Clocgen is a windows app. Much less childish than easytune.

best regards

John

Also, you might want to try updating the Bios to the new F6. When I had the
F3a that came with mine originally I could get around 270FSB, then when I
"upgraded" to the F4 I could only get 230MAX...now with the F6 I'm back at
270 again... plus, it looks like there are alot more features as well...

On a side note, the boot time with the F6bios I find to be quite a bit
faster as well.

I do it from a boot disk, I've never had good luck with Windows flashing
programs.
