Im having some issues with overclocking on this board, with my Winchester 3200.

Its probably just me being dense. I remember reading somewhere that the HTT should stay below 1GHz, so i knocked HTT multi down to 4x, Given that ive only got cheap ass DDR 400 (think dabsvalue 8-4-4 at 2T eugh) till i get my ballistix some time around payday I set up a 5:4 divider (max mem overclock = 166). Then ive tried gradually knocking the speed up, but i cant for the life of me get it to take above ~2.2Ghz, setting teh fsb to 210, and 220 both works, anything over that it just resets back to 200.

Am i missing something? Or am i being too ambitious with speed so its resetting itself. I know its not the memory, cos thats running at DDR400 even at 250 fsb.
 
Did you bump up the Vcore voltage any? I would also lower that HTT multi to x3. My 3200+ winchester wouldn't do more than 2.2Ghz at stock voltage but runs fine at 2.4 with 1.5V.
 
Vcore is up +.05 its not an issue with the thing not posting, it literally just wont save teh changes, unless its just resetting itself because it wont post, which although a neat feature youd think it would have a message or something

it doesnt exactly reset it, it leaves the setting alone but stays in that screen
