Just wanted to post a thanks to the Op. Using your guide, I was able to restore my amp by replacing R26 too. Nice work.

Nope, you only need to install SP2. Like he said, they're cumulative.

You said it yourself in your first post. Experience is everything. Microsoft recently came out with a Desktop technician certification. As much as it sounds like you dislike networking, you should angle yourself towards some sort of support tech. The money might not be great (25-35k) but you can...

It's pretty easy to turn Vsync off for OpenGL and not have to worry about it. Don't buy into the myth that Vsync makes your crosshair do this or that, I played at a very high level in CS for more than a year with different settings...it makes no difference.

Update: Turned my memory ratio (after finding it) to 320 and putting my vcore at 1.6, diabling all memory/turbo settings and spread spec, I'm now running at 250FSB/3.0Ghz. I am able to run prime95 successfully. Also, My temp under load is 120F, 90F idle. Not too bad for a retail HSF, even...

I'm not sure how to change the memory ratio on my board (ASUS P4P800 Deluxe.) Is it simply a matter of changing it to something other than 400? or is there a divider setting that I'm missing? I have tried AGP/PCI at 66.66/33.33 with no help. Spread specturm is off. Pam has been tried with...

ASUS probe has it around 1.61-1.63, under full load (prime95) it will drop to 1.55 or lower. This does seem to be at the same time, prime95 halts due to "hardware failure." I had originally thought it might be the PSU, but wanted to post for other opinions. BTW, what is the default and...

Well I turned off turbo and it made no difference. Anything past 230 and I get a BSOD at the XP splash screen. Any other ideas? If I remember correctly, I do believe my stepping is one of the Costa Rica ones...if that helps any?

Actually, I don't know. I took a look at it when I installed it (bout a month ago), yet I didn't write it down. Is there a list available of the different steppings and their countries? If I saw it, I might be able to remember. I'm thinking it was Malaysia or Costa Rica? Anyways, I'll try...

Purchased a 2.4c and P4P800 Deluxe combo. 2x256 Kingston Hyper-X 3500 DDR . I am having trouble reaching a stable "good" overclock. Currently I am running at 225 FSB ~2.7Ghz, turbo mode, pam enabled, dram set to spd, vcore auto. Around 78F at idle and 95F under load. At this speed, Prime95...
