Turns out my memory is just freaking out. I purchased a cheapo 667mhz stick (found out 533 won't boot with this board) and it booted up, changed the voltages and timings bam works... but only with one stick. I guess my other stick died. I'm so sick of these ballistix.
How do Corsair Dominators PC6400 work with this?
Took my Dominator 6400 C3DF to 1150MHz @ 5-5-5-15. Un fortunately, my E8400 doesn't want to play past 3.8GHz.:(Quote:

It has its own bios....
So for the life of me I cannot get the audio to work in Vista 32.
It was working from the updates and then I installed the latest drivers through Realtek. Worked fine and then after a couple of programs I installed it stopped working.
I uninstalled, reinstalled... still wont play anything.
are you sure it is enabled within the bios?
Have a look at the side-by-side in post #8 of this thread. There is some hardware difference, but no one really knows what. I neither condone nor take any responsibility if you try, but the XE BIOS does work on a Pro if you use the switch to force-flash it. No clue what it changes though.Quote:

Hoping to get some help with my OC, Im trying to hit the 4ghz mark without breaking 1.60 idle vcore. Im 24/7 stable at 3.6 gig with 1.41 idle (1.44 bios) vcore (the rest of the voltages are at stock) as you can see from the screen below, i was able to do a 1024 run at 3960 with 1.58 idle vcore. Any assistance would be most appreciated, not looking for a 24/7 stable machine, just want to break the 4ghz mark :D

obviously a corrupted registry...next time, you might want to try a system restore from windows first and then from the vista install disc if restore from windows does not do the trick.Quote:

Hi
Im getting this board with 4gb of "random" ddr667. Can this board OC without OC-ing the memory? Or it just has upwards divisors?
Thanks!
if you overclock the FSB, you will overclock the memory...the only way that you can not overclock the memory if you have an extreme cpu where you can just raise the multi...right now, my QX9650 will not go above 9x multi (default)...abit does not have the sh*t in order with the bioses...i haven't tried the latest beta; that might be the gem to unlock mine.
Not sure if this is your issue, but a guy I know from the abit forums has an IX38 and must have EIST enabled in order to use his 9650's unlocked multi above 9x. If you haven't already, can't hurt to try. :)Quote:

Xigmatek 1283 cooler
2 Gig of DDR2 800 Crucial Ballistix
WD 160 Gb HD
Sapphire 2600 XT w/ 512 Mb (I'm not much of a gamer)
Samsung Sata DVD burner
Corsair VX550 PSU
My best friend has bought me an Antec 300 case(damn nice of him if I do say so myself) and I was wondering about the fans which have L M H switches. If I set them on high will I be able to control the RPM from uguru?
i remembered trying this before with C1E and EIST enabled...tried it just with EIST; no luck!Quote:

You won't be able to do it. Watercooling has its limits and you pretty much reached it. I tried also and got similar results. The consensus is you will need much higher end cooling like phase. This is assuming you don't have that super rare golden one chip.Quote:

So I think my board just died.
I was swapping everything over to my new case and when I tuned it on, it powered off and then on. Trying to figure out what the problem was, i undid my pump, fans etc and then it started. I tried hooking up a fan to the header and the computer died, posted 8.2 error which is ATX power supply.
Tested the PSU in a diff computer and it worked, but the IP35 is stuck in a 8.2 code. When its on it will stay on for about 10 sec and then power surge very fast and stay on, code is constantly 8.2
Think the board is dead?
sounds like it...could have shorted or surged when trying to hook up the fan.
