isnt the multiplier supposed to be at 7.5x? in the bios it will let me change the multiplier but i cant put a "." after i push 7 to make it 7.5.
if anyone knows what to do its greatly appreciated. also i disabled speedstep and c1e (whatever that is) and the core clock is at 2.3GHz, with 7x multiplier. so if any can tell me how to make it 7.5 its again greatly appreciated.

You have a 650i chipset mobo, and some older mobos don't support .5x multipliers. That's most likely the issue, unless there's something important I'm not thinking about.
