FATAL ERROR: Rounding was 0.5, expected less than 0.4
Hardware failure detected
Heres the situation, at 250, 249 and 248mhz FSB Prime95 last anywhere from 1-15 minutes before giving me this message, no matter what the voltage is on the cpu, whether stock or upwards of 1.65v. Lower FSB than that, with a bit of voltage tweaking, she been stable over 5 hours with prime95. Feels as though i've hit a brick wall and i'm beginning to think (Because no matter what the voltage is set at) that the cpu is not the limiting factor here, as i cant believe that a difference of 3 mhz would cause prime95 to do this. and i know its not the ram, as at 250mhz FSB on a 5:4 ratio its at 200mhz, which is stock speed, agp/pci is locked... Could it be i need better northbridge cooling before being able to overclock higher is the NB my limiting factor in this equation? Everything else runs fine and i believe my temps are well within range.. I think NB temp goes from 35C Idle to about 48C Load, CPU Temps 45C idle 60C Load, however, my ic7 abit board reports higher temps than usual, so there no frickin telling what the temps are....
Any suggestions?? Can the prime95 error be used to help figure out whats holding me back?
