Your memory is having errors. I have had the same problem many times unraring large files. Memtest says your stable but your not. Turn down memory and no more errors.Quote:

X7007 you should be running your mem at 2.3 daily if oy uput a fan blowing right on your memory. I run with G.Skill but, it has the same D9's as your and I have been running it since July of 06 anywhere from 2.25 to 2.4 without any problems. I have a 90mm fan that puts a lot of air cooling over my sticks.

I got a quick question, it does not seem that the BIOS will recognize all of my RAM. Is this normal?
Here is my ram setup:
Slot 1: 512MB
Slot 2: 1GB
Slot 3: 512MB
Slot 4: 1GB
Now, on post it only shows up 2688MB's (see picture attached). I expected this in Windows since I am running a 32bit OS and have 1GB video card memory. But shouldn't the BIOS pickup all the memory regardless?
CPU-Z reports all the sticks and shows 3072MB's.
Just enable the memory remap option in bios ;)Quote:

Hey 50H here is a bios shot from my system. Here you see C1 disabled.
I have reloaded 2301 bios to check this. Now when I leave C1 enabled it still has no effect on cpu core voltage. Is your bios page set the same way?
Make sure everything is set as you see in my pic.

Let me know if you had anything else set differently Thanks 50H, let's see if we can get this worked out or if it an issue with only your board.

If your wondering why only 400fsb I am just experimenting with this 2301 bios for the first time with 4 x 1024 megs of memory. This bios is handling it very well I am currently
running 400fsb 1:1 and my timings are set at 3-3-3-5. I through out 2301 and 2302 but decided that 2301 was defintely the better of the 2 for me. So I reloaded yet again to work on your problem and test it further.
Could someone please give the latest revision of this board ? Is it 1.04?
Thanks.
My latest P5WDH I purchased was a 1.04G. I bought it from Newegg 6-1-07.
I believe it to be the last revision. I have built 14 systems based on these terrific boards.
WZ
Here's a couple of pics to give you a better idea of the 'AUTO' problem. Note the C1E and CPU Voltages are set to auto and can't be changed. There is no enabled or disabled option available. BTW: My board is a revision 1.02GQuote:

you may want to drop back and run Lawry's modded 2004 bios to go with your quad core. It would suck to have to change mobo's otherwise to get more from your quad.

Try to set your AI Overclocking to AUTO, then change value for C1E ........ After that, you can change AI Overclocking to MANUAL...... ...
Tried that and it didn't work. Thanks all the same for your suggestion :)Quote:

Even though I'm able to set the Vcore I can't get the board to go beyond 9x340MHz with a Q6600 CPU. I've went as high as 1.6V with all other voltages maxed, but it's a no go :( I have another identical CPU to this on a P35 board and it overclocks to 3.4GHz on air, so it's not the CPU.
Time to retire this mobo I guess.
Has anyone had any issues with the main IDE port?
I've had both the Slave and now the Master drive attached to the main IDE port disappear within the last week, and only when I pushed on the connections did they come back. I plan to buy a new IDE cable just to be sure, but if there's a history of the port failing I might just get a cheap one. The rounded cable I'm using has been trouble-free for several years, but a little after midnight today the Master drive apparently just stopped being connected.
Since my A4 (good version) Neo HE550 power supply is in, working on all the internal issues at once seems like a good idea...
The bios is limited to addressing the memory by a setting called Memory Remap. You should only change this if you use a 64 bit OS. XP and Vista both have a 64 bit version. I have the same issue with my 4Gb installed. I currently run 64 bit Vista and the bios reports all 4Gb with right setting.Quote:

Good luck.
I remember reading in here that the multiplier has been disabled in the bios by ASUS.
My question is this: Is it still disabled for the EXTREME Edition X6800 Core 2 Duo? I am using this CPU and am wondering WHY it was ever disabled since I'm pretty sure the CPU is sold UNLOCKED and we are 'allowed' to change the multiplier.
Thanks,

Maybe i should remount it? I have a new bios?
So it couldnt be that and it seems like everything else is seeing the cores..device manager etc.
If anyone has any idea i would be grateful.
Hey 50H don't use that OC profile crap. Go into your bios set what you want where you want it then hitF10 and enter and get out Don't ever use OC profiles or OC by percentage. Geez that is all just garbage. I wonder how many other having problems are using this crap. I'm sorry but just too many of you just aren't up to this. Everybody just wants to buy the sh*t hit a couple buttons and just like magic you get a massive overclock!! And when you don't the board is garbage ,the ram is garbage,the cpu is garbage oh and lets not forget that F'ing no good psu!!
Arlequin this was covered just a couple pages back!!.

Bios 1601 was the last to allow upwards multiplier. (see my sigg ;) )Quote:

Oh lawry relax I will get to your bios. Good grief take a pill. Oh and in case you are unaware, this is a thread started by you but it and all posts that get submitted here are the property of Xtreme Systems. Not yours, not mine, all theirs. Look it gets a little frustrating trying to bring peoples systems along when it takes forever to get just what they have for hardware in their systems and then trying to find out just how they are attempting to Over clock their systems.
I will make a Blanket statement to all right now that the P5WDH Should only be Overclocked Manually. Use no profiles, No %ages. Just Manually.
Let Heat determine your cpu voltage. i have excellent liquid cooling.
My e6600 is coming up on one year of 1.65 pretty much daily. Some days higher, some lower, it has never seen less than 1.55volts in bios. Never.
Don't be afraid, your cpu can take it. So long as you can keep temps in perspective.
I don't post here to make anyone person happy and anytime someone is only posting about ditching this board for their favorite board that is thread crapping and I am sure as hell going to say so.
I am not made of money. I have the same 6400 and 6600 I started with. I can't afford to cherry pick out of dozens. I get what I get and I make that work. I don't use super cooling as it is for the most part best suited for benching. All my computers live in cases. I try to bench not at my highest most clock but rather my highest stable clocks as I use my systems for video rendering. I need tham fast and stable. At 3825mhz daily my e6600 on this P5WDH is extremely fast and stable. my 6400 runs at 3600mhz daily and is air cooled. that is on a different board and I don't discuss it here.
w2richwood I don't think there would be any advantage in going back to either of those bios'. Unfortunately the 6400 is not really a great match for these boards as the board just can't hit a high enough clock for the chip. I ran the 6400 for a couple weeks while i waited for my 6600 to come in. I found my max stable to be around 435fsb which was just well below what the chip could do. But, that was all this board would do (Stable). It does much better with the 6600 simply because of the higher multiplier.
I believe the best bios may well have been the 1707 at least for me. Best bios seems to vary board to board.
