Im getting so desperate. I just yesterday got my new rig and now I've tried simply everything.

E6750 G0 stepping + Tuniq Tower 120
Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R F4 BIOS (rev. 2.0) (CPU-Z says Rev: A2, so I presume it's 2.0)
4x 1GB Crucial Ballistix 800MHz 4-4-4-12 @ 2.2V specced
Antec NeoHE 550W
8800 GTS
Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit

I can change all the other settings in BIOS (also the "hidden ones" through CTRL+F1) but FSB!

If I touch it and set it to the SAME 333MHz it's on AUTO -> my computer dualboots after saving BIOS and BIOS settings for FSB is reseted.

I've tried with auto voltages, with manual (+0.1-0.4V to RAM) etc - nothing helps.

I had the same problem with the "stock" F2 BIOS this board came with.

What on earth is going on? :confused:

C1E, thermal throttling, EIST, Virtualization disabled.

Please help me out! :(

P.S. When I've +0.4V set for DDR, PC Health shows FAIL for DDR Voltage. At least after dualboot. This is anyways the specced 2.2V for the mem.

Got it fixed!

1) legacy usb storage detect --> disabled
2) smart fan control --> legacy
3) no-execute memory protect --> disabled
