I see. In that case I,m even more confused about this strange phenomenon with dvd\cd drives while playing F.E.A.R. and overclocking. I know I've kind of beaten this thing to death with my other post but I really wan't to overclock. Whenever I oc the machine while playing said game the drive with the game disk in it goes crazy making the sound of frantic seeking until I
shut the game down. This stops when I change back to stock settings in bios. I confirmed a pci\pcie lock with clockgen so I'm lost at this point. I got MSI on the phone and they had no idea. Go figure. I also finally tried a different drive just to make sure and it did the same thing.
