Yea thats the info i found googling like crazy that mems run ok at 800mhz but anything above that is nearly impossible.
I guess then ill have to go for 800 3-3-3.

I just ordered an additional 2GB as well, I hope I won't have any problems. I'm currently running at 400x8 (1:1) with pretty loose timings.
yes up mch and memory volt a lil may help with 4 gb of ram
thats a nice clock on the e6300 btw i wouldnt guve it up eather

Adding 2 more sticks straight ruined my OC - I tried EVERYTHING and ended up having to drop my OC by 300MHz. Just going x64 Vista alone I lost 100MHz of stability.
that dont sound right sounds like somethings not setup right

2403 now official..
have you tryed this any change from the beta ?
Rich
Eastcoasthandle so they fixed the 4:5 problem?
Can you run now at 400FSB : 1000RAM???
That's really good news man.. I'll get some 2 x 2Gb G.SKILL kit tomorrow then..
Did a file comparison and it seems there is no change from the previous Beta.
thank you good to know havent used it yet but heard it works good for new chips

Right now I'm running my pc at 425 * 8 @ 1.85v vMch
Been like that for a while, I wonder if that's enough to run at least at 400 * 8...
Definitely P5W is getting behind because of silly FSB limitations...
Oh well, it's a fairly old chipset.
Gonna have to get a P5K-SE or something if i want to run my ram at 500mhz+ without spending money on mobo.
Thanks for answering though man :)
I'm not sure with 2x2Gb RAM but with 2x 1Gb 400 4:5 is was no problem for me on this board:

I had an old rev with just 1.65Vmch, penciled a bit up to ~1.75V
wow thats for sure pushing the limits on this board nice clock

hi there
can someone please tell me the command to update the bios using AFUDOS.
i have forgot the command. lastbios i updated was 1901.
also. what bios would be the best to update to.
thanks
unless your using a later chip like a 1333 fsb i would use 2004

On week ago my machine start BSODs. Yesterday, a last BSOD cause my Windows installation to not boot anymore. After running chkdsk from another Win, 8 GB of corrupted data was found. So, I formated everything and start a new fresh Windows installation.
Now, I come back and Windows did not boot again. Suspecting from a hardware failure, I disconnect everything and began testing each hardware peace, one at time. Quickly I discovery a memory problem: from my 4 memory sticks, only one is working right now. If I install any of other 3 sticks, in any combination possible, the machine even boot.
I didn't have another machine to test theses memory sticks right now. But I'm not believing the memory could be the problem. The memory was running just 1:1 and with 2.1v, i.e., not overclocking, not overvoltaging, nothing which could damage theses sticks.
What could be happening?
I forgot to mention one more thing, an important one: the memory is actually configured as AUTO in the BIOS (also, everything else is now configured as AUTO). When posting, the screen show the memory as PC2-5300. But CPU-Z is telling me the memory is running at 400FSB (PC2-6400)!
Completely crazy, isn't?
I just put in the additional 2GB I had ordered and I couldn't get it to boot into Windows at 1:1.
I raised the memory voltage to 2.1v (not sure if I should push it further) and mch to 1.65 which is the max available setting with my current Bios.
Had to set it to 4:3 to boot. Any suggestions?
It will be a sad day if its true that Window 7 (or whatever they decide to call it) is release showing that 4 Gigs of ram is not required...per rumor.
However, from what I heard you have to increase the voltage on the ram and increase Mch. However, that depends on what your ram is rated for. I am not sure if 1.65V MCH is enough but maybe someone with a similar setup will show you how.
