I set the fsb in the bios only to boot into windows and see it at 200fsb. Then, rebooting and finding the settings oced in the bios. I'm wondering what the trick is with this board. I have the latest bios, 10/04 bios.

so, I set the bios fsb to say 220, then boot into windows, pull up cpu-z and it shows the fsb at 200.

I reboot, go back into bios, fsb shows 220.

Any help would be appreciated.
 
I had that same board, I was unable to get anywhere overclocking with it. No matter what I did I couldn't get it to overclock. I had the exact same problem you're having too by the way.

Whats worse is you can't use any windows based oc'ing tools to do it either, Gigabytes "easytune" program isn't compatible with that board, neither is clockgen.

I'm actually kinda glad I fried that board.
 
well, had I had the money and knew of a nf3 250 board or newer via chipset without video for mATX, I would have not gotten this board.

This board will go into my wifes computer eventually. About the time s939 has a good board for mATX. :D
 
I hear ya man, thats the only reason I bought that board too. Cheap + mATX.

Now that I've junked the old compaq case, I'll eventually take a sledgehammer to that board.
