I have a MSI P6N Platinum Mobo w/
intel E6420 @ 2.13Ghz
2gb patriot PC6400

I am trying to overclock my system to ~2.9-3.2ghz
I can increase my Fsb in the bios but my system is not stable at 2.6ghz/1300FSB?
In the bios under the D.O.T. Control it will not let me change the cpu voltage for some reason. I have adequate cooling to overclock.

At the cpu voltage setting it shows [0.0000] I have tried to press enter to change to increase this setting but nothing will happen.

Ok dude, first of all if you hit page down or page up you can change it. Second make certain you have disabled all the stuff you need to disable. Like "spread spectrum" or spectrum spread, whatever it's called diable it. Also there are like 4 things you need to do in BIOS also. Hit f4 to access C1E and diable it, there are 2 to other things too, one has to do with your computer stepping you're multiplier down automatically. EIST and DOT. Disable them. Execute Disable Bit Disabled
-Set Limit CPUID Disabled
