Why won't my geforce 6800 (non-gt) stop freezing in 3dmark03?

Well the thing is, yeah, I have an XFX Geforce 6800, and I set the voltage to 1.6v. Now I tried to overclock my card, but I can't get it as high as the others getting at 380/880, is there any way to try? The max I got before is like 350/840, which isn't up to standards for me, even though they say "each card is different"

WOAH big tragedy there your card doesn't run much faster than stock levels!!! :Q :Q :Q :Q :Q

Setting that voltage up is going to do hardly anything btw.

WTF do you mean!?! Its still above stock speeds... how can you not be satisfied, your getting more than you payed for??

**Oh yeah dont go making a "My Video Card wont overclock far enough so im RMAing it thread" either!

But there's another problem... Its not detecting the video card at its normal speed... Instead, its operating at 200/500 at stock speed rather than 325/700... Is there any way to fix this too? I won't RMA it, I just want to fix the problems I'm having.

Can't you lock it into place with the o/c utility to have it start at normal speed at bootup?
