EP45-DS3R, e8400, ddr2 800. rest info is in sig.

SO I'm trying to hit 4.0 for 24/7 use. I have doen this before with my ole ep35-ds3l with 445 fsb x9 w/ voltage at 1.34.

But with my new board I can't seem to get it stable above 3.6 ( 400 FSB) and I'm sure i'm doing something wrong as this board has alot more bios menus etc.

400 fb
9 multi
1.25vcore
1.2 mch
2.1vram
ram is set to 2.0 and runs at 800.

I can OC in bios to 445 FSB and run memtest for hours on end. But i can get into windows about 1 outta 6 restarts and when I do, orthos fails in a few mins. My temps are all fine which idle around 35-39. I'm lost. Am i possibly at my peak?
 
You had Vcore at 1.34 for 445x9 and now you're at 1.25, and expect to get the same clocks?

Bump up the Vcore...
 
Sorry i forgot to add. I had the vcore up to 1.4 and still get orthos error. Was stating my 3.6 OC is stable at 1.25
 
Try increasing NB and FSB voltage up a notch and see if that makes any difference. Since memtest ran fine, we can safely assume it's not the RAM.
 
seems its my voltage. i can get 410 off 1.275, but if I want to jump to 415 I have to jump the volts up to 1.33, weird
