welp my raid just failed last night. 2 sea's, one raptor, and a 250 wd. I had the seas in raid 0. very unstable, at stock clocks or the mild oc i have. I swapped out my gskill with some brand new corsair 6400, both sets check out fine in my other board. tried to reinstall windows a few times in diffrent configs, no matter what on any drive ACHI/or raid will lock up with current iiachi/iastor drivers. IDE mode works fine though, so anyway not the end of the world. I only had 1.62v in the SB with plenty of cooling on pwm/SB/and a fan on NB. This all started after trying the beta B03 bios, prolly got unlucky, seems most have no problem with this bios, i flashed back too 14 carefully.
be warned~
ohwell was gonna prolly pick up a gigabyte or the ix38 for xmas
Which Raid are you using? Intels or JMicron's? I have a Raid 0 array and I used intels, i first tried to use the other one, but my system crached while installing windows. I also just purchased a PCI RAID card. I wanted to put my two IDE's on a promise raid as well. But I always like to have one single drive to back everything onto.
I still have not updated my bios, was going to do it this weekend. Just no time.

i'll give you a tip on overclocking...always a good idea when starting out to overclock is to leave your voltages at default and just raise your FSB in increments of 10-20 Mhz to see if it will post to boot...go into windows and do some chores to see if you get any screen freezes, BSOD or a random reboot.
use Uguru to raise your FSB in 10 or 20 Mhz increments...you can run wPRIME bench; particularly the 1024M stability bench to see if your system is stable...that particular test (about 6 minutes to run) will find if you have a weakness in voltages like vcore, mch, ichio and vmem.

STRICTLY A SUGGESTION FOR GETTING 3.6MHZ...MIGHT BE OVER DONE ON SOME VOLTAGES...EXPLORE UP OR DOWN.
ace many thanks to you and myerz635 for help,i am a 50 yr old thrying to learn dos i have no problem with hands on, are oc or building compu.i need more time with dos. i got into the bios and keep saying (source file not found) ant idea!!!!!!!! help
myerz635, my runme.bat looks the same.
yes ace it was typo thanks.
no idea what is your problem...you need to get someone to come over to your place to show you how to work DOS...or, do a web search for a step by step guide on typing DOS commands...if you add a space or do not add one, it will or can make the action fail...formatting has to be correct at every step for a successful completion...for now, don't try it until you get someone side by side to help you or you read up on it.
Thank you Ace.
Fast quesitions...
Crucial says my memory runs at 4-4-4-12 at DDR800 at 2.2V. Should I set these numbers manually? Cause Abit has my settings at FSB:2:3 5-5-5-5-18 at a Frequency of 408.0Mhz per CPU-Z and at 1.8V.
Before I do what you say regarding finding out my highest FSB at stock, I am going to set my ram to Crucial Specs and install the latest beta bios with a floppy per your link.
Last thing... You once told me to turn off C1E and EIST in the bios... should I keep those two things on or off for the test you suggest I do?
thanks ace.
I thought I would share a working 8x450 OC. This is with an E6750 (g0 stepping) Solid as a rock so far.

Like Ace said, every motherboard and every cpu is different, so you may need more or less volts.
hi scope66,
Air you using Air or water to cool your system? I am using a GeminiII Cool Master with two 1350 RPM Yates fans. But thanks for those specs, even though I have a Q6600 :)
I have the Zalman 9700 NT (air) Temp under full load (small FFT's in Orthos) is around 52 Celsius.
What I did is I set up the 8x450 under "User 1" in uGuru, and I have the default set at 8x400 with less volts. I just kick it up for gaming or any other intensive tasks by switching to User 1.
leave thos timings alone until you get your overclock to where you want it...once that happens...start tightening up the timings to see if they will hold up under the overclock.
any time you overclock, it is a good idea to eliminate variables that can be induced by C1E and EIST.
ace thanks again, i found my mistake,i was using to much space with the swithes. flash beta 16,B03 was a sucess!!!!!!!!!!!!
hey maybe someone here can help me with my boot problem
Q6600
ip35 pro
4gig crucial ballastix tracer
ocz gamexstream 700w
(3870)
3870's is being shipped atm so it's in parenthesis
so after putting together everything, my computer is not booting completely
when i turn my computer on, it boots up and makes a sound like it's reading hdd but after a few seconds, it instantly reboots and same thing happens over and over again
according to POST, it's displaying 8.7. and apparently it means
Check the CPU Voltage
did i install something wrong? i mean why should i check the cpu voltage when i have yet to touch anything??
another thing is that untill my 3870 arrives, i have no means of display so i can't check up my CMOS setting
what should i do?
thanks
Need some help. I just got my Ip35 pro and 4 new maxtors (seagate 7200.10). Now the maxtors are hooked up to sata ports 3-6, and a dvd burner is hooked up to sata port 1. The problem is in the BIOS it is only reading 2 of the maxtors, I've switched around the sata ports already, the maxtors are all fine and the boards sata ports all work, but depending on where I hook up the maxtors only two of them are identified. any help plz?
-edit I am such an idiot, sry people lol. one of the power cables going into the Corsair PSU was kinda loose and wasn't all the way in.
