So I have an e6750 on an evga 680i mobo, and when I have it set to "unlinked" 1800 FSB, 800 Ram, I can (usually) boot into windows and run prime95 and games and memtest and it all works perfectly.

The problem is that about 1/2 of the time, the computer gets stuck on boots. It either hangs at "verifying DMI data" or it gives a BSOD error right afterward.

Once in Windows, I can run Crysis or Prime for hours....


Oh.. I also had a long boot tone one time and a "C1" error on the mobo.

WTF?

Any ideas?

Try a different BIOS version. I've had that problem with 0608 for my P5N-E SLI, and re-installed the earlier BIOS 0401.

No problems ever since.

I would try every BIOS that supports 1333 CPUs.

Good luck!

Reduce your overclock by about 200 Mhz, without changing any other settings, and I bet your problems will go away.
