I OC my rig, and after I apply the new BIOS setting, the system does cold boot. This is normal, right?
But the problem is... I usually unplug the power cord of my system when I don't use it and just plug it again when I want to use it. With BIOS seeted OCed, , if I power on the system, it does cold boot every time, ON - Briefly OFF - And ON again. Is this normal?

FYI, if I don't unplug the power cord, the problem doesn't occur.
Or if I run the default BIOS seeting, the problem also doesn't occur.
I previously have P965-DS3P board, but this problem doesn't occur. Cold boot only occur once when I apply the new OC BIOS seeting. Not like this new board.
I have tried new F5g bios, but it doesn't help.

Please P35-DQ6 users, share information about this problem. Does every board of this kind do the same or just my board? I have to make sure if my motherboard isn't defect to decide whether I should RMA it to the distributor or not.

Thanks a lot before for your kind reply. :)

So... Does anybody else encounter same problem as mine and brother Gaspimp? It's also known as double boot problem from a cold boot.

I just wanna know if what happened to my board is a normal condition.
Please share more everybody.
Thanks before. :)

it's in the Intel chipset design to set straps and co if you alter settings or cold start, I had the same as with the P5W (975), P5B and now P5K Dlx...

I have the same problem, but I have a DS3P. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. I too am interested. :)

YES all the new intel chipsets do it! It is normal depending on what settings you change in the bios.:fact: Now can we please get back to solving real issues, like why some memory subtimings seem to be unchangeable in bios.

Guys...is 2.35V on the memory safe?, i don't have active cooling. My memory is now set to 1134Mhz (1066 standard 2.2V). I've done some testing and it seems stable, but voltage/heat concerns me.

Has anyone got the Corsair PC2-8500C5D kit to 1200MHz?

yes n no lol i runnin @ 2.35
my mushkin is covered on 2.35 but they recommend active cooling
not worth the hassle of rma
i got 2 80mm fans on them
the rbsmontemor mod is best i think my ram is cool to the touch

2.35v is too high for passive cooling in my opinion. some even would say 2.35v won't bring guaranteed results for more than a year even if active cooled.

My friend ran some gmh at 2.32v actual for about 2.5 months without active cooling (although I'd imagine his aircooler should have at least brought a slight draft of air by the area) and it started having posting issues at 1.8v, requiring "jumper sticks" to get to use them after a failed overclock. By 3 months, one of the sticks died. He went single stick as he waited for new sticks, and a day before the new sticks came in, the single stick died.

I wouldn't go above 2.3v with active cooling if you want to keep your ram for a while.

Realtek sound problems. I installed the Realtek drivers from the Gigabyte CD-ROM, and when I play the 3D Audio Demo on a pair of bud ear phones, the L and R are reversed. If I use a larger set of headphones, the L and R are correct. I tried this with 2 pairs of large and 2 pairs of bud size headphones and both bud size headphones are REVERSED.

I just installed v1.7 driver from Realtek and the problem persists.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Anyone else find the onboard sound on the P35-xS3x a little bass-less?

I gave up on it and chucked an Audigy into my PC - I haven't heard such lack-lustre onboard since my S754 MSI K8N Neo-FSR (and I'm pretty sure that was just due to a fault) :rolleyes:

[EDIT] Yeah so I had another go with the onboard and it's because I selected HEADPHONES in the driver panel that my sound output was terrible, so stick to the "Line Out" setting

Hey is the GA-P35-DS4 a good board for overclocking the Q6600? The P5K is about the same price.

i think this board is quite good
my result with DS3 and ADATA ram

what the different beetween DS4 and DS3 instead the 2 PCIe slots and some heatpipe?

Has anyone had trouble when the monitor goes into sleep mode, then wakes up and displays nothing and flashes the green power light? I know the OS is running and not crashed.

I have trouble even getting a display on post. I have to reset the bios and hope for the best. Sometimes it gives a blank screen and flash power light halfway to loading windows. I cant use monitor power saving only screensaver.

I think its the mobo. Although it in theory could be the graphics card or the monitor too.

Its the only issue I had (apart from e2160 having lw fsb wall of 395fsb), but its quite a show stopper.

Reminds me of my dfi infinity nf2 pos, but at least my board holds an overclock.

OK! I wonder wilkl I have issues just dropping my Xp install from DS3 3.3 into a P35 DS3 board. I reckon I might be ok after I install P35 drivers first and then do the swap? I remember when the S3/DS3 came out first it was nearly impossible for people to slipstream drivers etc ... everyone needed a fresh XP install.
