Since I had to buy a new case and power supply recently, I figured I might resurrect an old issue I've had and never solved:
I am attempting to modify the FSB speed for my e4300 for the P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe. I'm using G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) for memory.
Here's what WILL work:
AI Overclocking at 5% (10, 15 and 20% yield no post).
A few of the general profile settings will post, including the most aggressive, but it only cranks the chip up to 2.62Mhz (and we all know what this CPU is capable of).
The main problem is that when I try to O/C in Manual mode, the readout for the FSB frequency in the bios is permanently stuck at 2745Mhz. Using the +/- keys will not change this value. Typing in a value and pressing enter reverts it automatically back to 2745 as well. This value is completely meaningless, however, as when I try to boot up with it set like this, I just get the stock frequency of 1.8.
Any theories or advice (that don't involve new chips and boards)???
I will ship a bottle of Three Floyds' Dark Lord Russian Imperial Stout (2010) to the person that helps in getting this thing licked -- assuming you are of legal drinking age.
