So you use AHCI now and it still freezes? You also installed drivers from CD? Can try to uninstall drivers and see if it will help any :( This is driving me crazy :( I have exact same problem as you, with moving mouse and white Firefox screen (if it is FF that is running)
yeah its the same problem, it seems to be seagate drives themselves that r causing problems, some ppl managed to take care of the problem by upgrading to new firmware, SD35 or something, u cant just obtain new firmware via seagate site, u need to talk to the support to get oneQuote:

Try doing so if you havent done it already.
I had the same problems with the latest Intel Matrix Drivers. I would get a BSOD while gaming or just while surfing the net. I got the iastor.sys error. I never had that problem with the previous matrix drivers. I didn't change any hardware, it all started with the newest driver. I reformatted my HD and went back to the previous driver for the intel matrix ahci and haven't had a BSOD since. I think its the newest drivers their forked....
Will do and report back :) Hope it could be so simpleQuote:

Whats your PLL set to?Quote:

i have been messing around a litle bit more and this was the result :D

Max temp 67° (stress test intelburn ;) )
PLL 1.52v Which GTL i should adjust? (0/2) or (1/3)? And what difference between them?Quote:

what the 533FSB nb and FSB Termination Voltage ??

1.52 for the PLL is good, maybe try 1.54v on it tho after tweaking the gtl's if needed.Quote:

Some of your volts are Way too high.Quote:

It's not because it's not stable that you just up the voltages. With P45 and 45nm CPU's you need to find the sweetspot... I have no idea why you set some settings so out of proportion, not stable just up one more ?
And not all E8400/8500 CPU's do 4.5 stable 24/7... if I was you I would use 4.2 daily and try to find the lowest Vcore possible if you have not already damaged your current CPU with them voltages...
Plz read up first on how to OC and not just apply ridicilous voltages :down:
I'm sorry if this might have sounded a bit rough but you are wasting perfect hardware due to inexperience and maybe an impossible goal
Heyy Leeghoofd very very thanks man 533FSB stable
thank you thank you thank you very very much
30m munites testing orthos dont stop ,you post settings stable olaalaaaaaa!!!!!!!
30 mins mean nothing... use these settings as a guideline, maybe you can use less volts, but change only one setting at a time... otherwise you will get lost (like I'm doing at the moment with the Giga mobo pffffff)
i am bad speak english translate babylon dictoneryQuote:

With 2gb dimms 55 and higher is sort of a must... but like I said before my templates proposed are guidelines and not specific required values. They have suited me well on this board and mostly you can run with a bit less, but that's for you to discover as each board/CPU/ram combo is different...
Hope it helps

Thanks helping me Leeghoofd
thanks, but i still dont understand what it can give to me? Better performance, better stability or smth else? I set it on 55 and haven't noticed any difference. :shrug:Quote:
