Dothan +P4GD1 + Clockgen !!! Help

I'm having problems with Clockgen for some reason . If i set a fsb larger than 150mhz my Windows XP freezes . I'm able to get in to Windows up to 2800 Mhz at 1.278v using the bios but when i use clockgen i have to increase using 5Mhz increments anything other than that makes my computer freeze . It is really annoying . :mad:

BTW ....pm770/ P4GD1 / bh-5 / OCZ powerstream and using same settings that Kamerat used in his review .

Does it have anything to do with Windows ? (sp1 or sp2 ? ) . Suggestions are welcome

agp/pci locks - i dont believe they kick in unless you boot at 201

You are right , i need to boot at 201+ in order to have it locked but I don't believe that is the problem for such low fsb . The problem is that i can set higher fsb in bios than in clockgen :confused: . People use this board without lock up to 240~250 without problems besides the fact that boot at 200+ for a 770 is almost impossible :D

Thats why we need multi settings in bios from Asus. NOW!

I think most people on P4GD1 have experienced problems with clockgen and SetFSB. The PCI freqs goes all over the place!

Afaik the lacking PCI-E lock is something inherent in the 915P chipset, although it would be the bomb if it could be fixed with at bios update! :)

What FSB are you booting at, and what FSB are you aiming at through clockgen?

I'll try it out here on my 730.

201*16=3216
hmm

....


what I was thinking,

when you boot at say, 150, you get 100/33
when you up from there ur pci-e/pci goes up too

when you boot from 166 you get 100/33, when u up from there it goes up too...

dunno how you're gonna get 200FSB though...

but 2800 @ 1.276V...

might do 3200 @ say 1.6V

seems like a very nice chip

@WWW. It is not stable at 2800 but migh be a good chip . I`m booting between 166 and 175 at this voltage set in bios

@stryg . I guess clockgen is causing me problems for some reason , Kamerat did much higher fsb with the same settings , but agree with you we need multis ASAP

More suggestions are welcome , it is really annoying :(

You are booting at 133 or 166FSB right?

I can boot up to 175 fsb , now i`m using 166x16 at 1.278v . But when boot at 133 and set to 150 using Clockgen my windows freezes ........weird!!!! :confused:

Booting at 166FSB is a no-go?

Try stepping up through clockgen in small steps (150-200MHz at a time).

That helped out some in the early 865/875 Dothan days :)

Also, heading for 150x16 ar 1.278vcore might be a little harsh if you havent got a wonder CPU.

Give it 1.6vcore, boot at 133x16, PCI-E=115, PCI=33.33, chipset voltage=1.6.

I run prime small fft for 5hs at 166x16 and 1.278v in bios :D . The bios migh be overvolting but i did that using bios . BTW i said that in the first post , i need to increase the fsb in 5 mhz increments for example if i try raise from 133 to 150 it crashs my Windows but if i do like 138....142....150 it works up to 200~215 . I really do not understand
