Long and short of it I have the following:
Gigabyte P35C-DS3R
2 X 2 GB Patroit DDR2 6400 RAM
EVGA 8800GTS 320
Q6600 B3 Stepping w/ Extreme 120 cooler in an Antec P180 V2 Case
Corsair 620HX PSU
So I updated the bios to the F6 and all was dandy at 3.01 ghz with 5-5-5-15 timings 1.468 v on the cpu to include vdroop, and RAM at 2.0 volts. With the RAM divider Memory was at 804 and was Prime stable for 12 hours.
I have ran this system at this amount for a good 4 months now. It froze today and I tried a few things:
1 stick of RAM. RAM in different locations, etc. The weird thing is no matter what I set it to it always reboots to 267 fsb. I can adjust the multi no prob. But the fsb is IDENTICAL regardless of which way I go with it (i.e. I cannot under clock it either)
So guys, I am stumped. I tried the f4 bios, the f6 bios, and the new f7 bio as well. I get the same error. I rechecked all of my settings and even manually set the pci-e bus to 101 to implement the lock and reset to auto as well to insure it was not the culprite. Bottom line is, I had a sweet 3.0 ghz Quad that will only run stock now because the motherboard seems stuck at 267. If someone has any ideas what I can do it would be great. RAM is fine, volts on PSU are fine. The big thing for me is that it shows all of my settings in the bios as there but will not adjust in anyway shape or form up or down on the fsb. It is always 267.
Thanks for taking a read and let me know what you guys think.
