Here are my specs:
Intel Pentium E5200 2.5GHz (200MHZ * 12.5) (800MHz FSB)
Gigabyte GA-E7AUM-DS2H mATX 9400
A-DATA DDR2 4GB Ram (2x2GB)
Windows XP SP3
Latest version of BIOS.
All Intel features disabled - NO SPEEDSTEP.
So here is my problem -
I was performing overclocking and just changing the FSB.
Able to get a simple overclock changed to 900MHz for the FSB. Linked with Ram.
Results were good CPU now set at - 225MHz * 12.5 = 2812.5 MHz
RAM overclocked as well (linked so I believe the ratio is 1:2).
So these are the weirds things:
I change to 928MHz and reboot. CPU-z shows no change.
Windows XP reports in system info says the clock has changed (232MHz *12.5) = 2900 MHz.
I decided to start over. Reset all to AUTO in the BIOS and even tried manually set back to 800MHz. On restart Windows says 2500MHz but CPU-z still says the FSB is set to 900MHz (225MHz * 12.5) = 2812.5 MHz.
I've even tried removing the battery from the MB. Reload the BIOS based on fail-safe mode.
But as soon as Windows XP starts up CPU-z still says the system is overclocked at 900MHz (225MHz * 12.5) = 2812.5 MHz.
I have changed the FSB in the BIOS to anything from 800 to 928MHZ.
Anyone have any ideas what I should do or try next??? I can't change the FSB in Windows. Seems like it is always stuck now at 900MHz (225MHz * 12.5) = 2812.5 MHz.
