Ok so heres the problem. Installed a new HSF today (Zalman CNPS9700), stock E6300, P5Be MB. Went into bios to change some configurations around. such as

FSB = 401 mhz
Memory multiplier = 802mhz
Memory 2.1V
Vcore = 1.3

Save and exit computer cant restart on its own. So I then turn off power, turn back on, it loads then I get the msg "Overclocking failed, press F1 to setup in bios or F2 restore defaults etc etc."

so my question is, Why won'it it let me O/c? and what does this error mean?
 
Was the the first thing you tried? start out lower. follow the guides.

it's probably not a good idea to just jump straight to 400 fsb.
 
The thing is, I ran these settings on the stock HSF and they ran well.
Only thing I didnt like on stock HSF, CPU 0 CPU1 were running around 50-55 degrees Celcius =/

Any ideas?
 
Well, I lowered FSB down to 350 mhz, the system memory to 700 mhz have the vcore at 1.3 and ram 2.1 .
Booted up fine, running now at 2.4 mhz @ 39 degrees.

I would still like to know why the Stock HSF was able to take the other bios variables and this one cannot? and In time will I be able to reach those settings, I enjoyed running at 2.8 ghz =p
