Hi guys my first post so hi hi :)

Ok my system. Im trying to overlock, got this guide from this lovely site however im having a few problems.

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/overclocking-guide-part-1,1525.html

When i enable Cpu host controller the system fails to boot.
Also same with setting the to Dim muliplier 2.00.

I have added more power as said in the guide with no luck.



Another question the temps in my bios are a about 10-15c cooler than core temp and other os software is that normal ?

Thanks for Anyhelp you can offer

ive managed to boot with using 2.50 dim dev up to 2043mhz 291.99 x 7.0 on stock volts,
I think the plan is to work this up to ram gets maxed out at around 800mhz then drop the dim dev to 2.00 ...im hoping/guessing this should work?

The discrepancy in temperature is probably because by the time you get into your bios, the CPU is cooled quite a bit (or if you do it first, it is at 0 load)
