I have a P5WDH, E6600, I can't get it to run 1:1 in any settings. It crashes. unless everything is set to auto.Can some one assist me w/bios setting?

I have this memory OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 ATI CrossFire Dual Channel OCZ2A8002GK 2x1024

and running bios 2004

Thanks, Brasco
 
in DRAM frequency: set this to the second setting from the top in the pull down list, this is 1:1 (under 1066 strap). in the list the ratios are: (top)4:3, 1:1, 4:5, 3:8, 2:3, 3:5, 1:2. (bottom)
1:1 is just about the one and ONLY setting i can get this board to post on, its kinda stupid. i need an mch voltmod in order to get any higher. it is severly fsb limited.
 
Thanks for the response, This new build is driving me nuts!!!!

I set it just like you said no overclock 266 CPU Frequency and 533 for Dram. I was able to but into Vista ultimate 1 time and read memory W/CPUZ it was 1:1 5-5-5-15.

after that it will not boot back into windows unless Dram is set to auto which CPUZ shows I'm running at 4:5 , 5-5-5-13.

I don't know if this issue is memory related . if I leave Dram set to auto I can Get the processor to clock to 3.2G stable, but the memory is only running 4:3 and hurting bandwidth......

Does it act like a motherboard problem or a ram issue?

Please help

Thanks
 
Yeah, some memory dividers are finicky for me as well. However, I had 0 problems running at 1:1 or 1:2 memory divider, bumping memory volts to 2.1, everything else auto. I can run my memory at 2:3 divider at 340fsb, as well, although at 365fsb I'm having troubles with this divider..
