My PC used to be able to run at 315FSB at CPU:RAM 3:2...

now i only manage to get to 305FSB... anything above the PC will not boot and alarms start going off! I've even relax it to CL3 and add another 0.1v to it.

can it be caused by an accident happened the other day? i've flashed my bios to v2.0, then i tried to OC to 3.6, but i forgot to change the ratio to 3:2, i left it at 1:1 at 300FSB.

still at 3.6Ghz it's still ok, but i can't get to my old 3.78Ghz

I don't specifically know, but it may have just been the BIOS update:

#
# Enhanced the system stability when over clocks the CPU FSB over 255 MHz with CPU:DRAM = 1:1 setting. (Over clocking is out of warranty)
 
I've had this happen after BIOS updates before. Sometimes the BIOS you flashed onto the board just isn't as overclocker friendly as the one you had before. This is probably the case.
