It's been about 3 years since I've done any oc'ing so forgive me. I've got a Epox 9NPA+Ultra, 3000+ (Venice), and 2GB (2x1GB) Corsair TwinX PC3200C2 (rated at 2-3-3-6 1T). I have to be missing something with regards to the memory.

Using the stickied guide in this forum I found the max HTT to be around 390. Max CPU was around 310. (these are not Prime95 tested, just where the motherboard would last post)

For the memory, I have to be missing some setting somewhere. I put vdimm at 2.9V, set the memory to 2.5-4-3-7 (1T), and drop the CPU multi down to 4x. I've tried changing the memory setting from Auto to 400(200) and then changing the HTT to 205 and I've also tried leaving the memory on Auto and then changing the HTT to 205. Neither will allow the board to post. Everything works fine at stock, 2-3-3-6 (1T) and 400 (200)/Auto, so I'm really baffled.

It's got to be something simple that I'm missing.
