not just pci frq is my problem.. all the MB voltage has to be exact for example 1,45 VNB, 1,3 VFSB 1,6 VSB etc.

4GHz!!!!!

Superpi 1M= 12.750s , very good:slobber:
This is the maximum windows bootable/1M benchable .

These days all test with 8x to see how it ll work out with the straps.

:woot: Congrats:woot:
Same here.
max bootable 3995.xx

im 10-20 mhz lower at max pi 1M at 9x with 8x i cant boot as high but stable clocks are higher
cant do these clocks on air thouhg , need water for the vcore im pushing = ) 1.7v set or around 1.63-1.65 real

btw tried playing around a little with pci-e freq and at 110 or more i loose my onboard lan !?

Has someone got their onboard lan running more then 100Mbit ? cant seem to set 1000Mbit anywhere and autosense sets 100Mbit also really crappy speeds at 100 = (

Lol, Vcore was set to max, 1.7V, that is 1.62V in real.
I used all of my casefans to cool cpu :D

I didnt test with clockgen, it may have gone little higher then.

about 100/1000mbit=
Does your router/switch also support 1000mbit?

well i heard of others p5bd dying and want to report same happened to me. i heard a loud bang from my case and it froze up. i reset. fans spin up and no post. i suspected a capacitor. i checked the board over every mm and there was no visible damage. psu was fine. i ordered a new board and got it delivered today, fitted it and it posts. i was using the 0804 bios. i been using it for quite awhile and flashed with 0804 bios and it died after few days. i hope this 0804 is not the reason it died. just a concidence right.

also the pioneer dvd/cd writer has been temperamental reading the dvds. when i boot up its read as a cd rom drive. i tried 3 brands of dvd blanks and been slow and eractic. also you slip a dvd in drive and click on drive and it comes up with disk error. im sure it the same problem has others have reported. the jmicron drivers. has anybody tried using the very latest drivers. if not using the standard ide drivers works right.

I've a new Pioneer dvd burner which was also very slow for no apparent reason on my P5B-D. Updated the firmware from pioneers website and it now works perfectly. Worth a try ;)

Firstly, I am Overclocking the CPU, the max I can get out of this CPU is listed below no matter how many volts I put thought it and so far is 15hrs prime stable, however the memory is at 900mhz @ 2.2v which I am more than happy with and is over 3000% memtest pro stable, so ok I got a bad stepping CPU but its quick enough for what I use it for.

The problem is if I restart the computer from within windows it restarts fine, If I shut down the computer from within Windows then switch back on later it reatrts fine, BUT...... If I shut down windows then either remove the power cable from the PSU or turn off the PSU when I come to turn it back on I get a message stating "overclocking Failed" Hit F1 for defaults or Del to enter the bios, I can hit Del to enter the bios and all my settings are still their, I can then immediatly save and exit and it posts/boots fine ??????? "confused yet cos I am"

Dont forget everything is stable and this only happens on cold boots, it is almost as if the crash free bios 3 is inisiating itself, also dont forget this same problem has, and is happening on 2 completely different boards, the Abit and the Asus, same components just different mobos, Crucial wont RMA the mem cos its passing memtest even at DDR900 without errors, the boards have been tested by the company I purchased them from with no probs, the only thing left is the CPU and I really cant see that being the problem.

Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated cos its doing my knutt. :stick:

it could be a PSU problem.. did u try with another PSU?.. i think is a goot place to start with..

= ) crazy , its my 24/7 vcore on water.

My router/server is a 1.2 Ghz unix machine with iptable script and dual giganics so it should handle gigabit = )

1. Have you tryed hard setting all the Nics?
2. Auto Sense should never be used.
3. Your PC is 10/100/1000 your server is 10/100/1000 whats between the server and PC? Hub, Switch, Crossover Cable?

well if auto performs better then it should be set = )
Crossover Cable for now but im sure its not the other rig since it was alot faster sending files to my old rig which had a 100Mbit onboard nic , it maxed out around 12MB/s both ways now im att 12/6 MB/s no mather what setting.

I have a very similar setup (linux box, 3com 24 port 10/100 switch) but I use 100 full with 10mb uplink to the cable modem of course. Auto negotiate will only work if both sides are set to auto. It sounds like your server is set to Auto. The reason i say that is because you are getting faster speeds with auto. That happens because your computer when set to full-duplex and not Auto does not send a response back to the server. This makes the server assume you are set to half-duplex. This results in a duplex mismatch and horrible speeds. Some people know this but just explaining it since there are big mis-conceptions about Auto and how it is supposed to work. Setting your PC to 100/full and the Switch/Server to Auto will not = 100/full. It will = a duplex mismatch of 100/half.

Ah thanks will look in to this asap = ) i dont think the server is set to auto but it might have reset back to auto for some reason.

Are you running glft.. ? Curious = )

I use the linux box just for routing its a 300mhz small form factor. Not sure about glft (i am not a big unix/linux person) A Linux friend of mine helped me configure the router box to begin with. I can do basic troubleshooting and putty into it but thats about it..... Its a basic Red Hat Enterprise 4 install with the Iptables configured manually no Xwindows or fancy stuff. I use a a MS SBS (dual p3 600mhz) to handle DHCP and File Shares.

What's wrong with the ones that's out?

And have anybody tried crossfire with the X1950 Pro? Im having strange performance issues and problems getting games working with catalyst A.I enabled.

1950pro crossfire suxx on the p5b at the moment
3dmark might produce half decent scores, but games are another thing entirely :(

regarding the x1 issue....what tools are you guys using to overclock your video card? i was using coolbits, but perhaps coincidentally when i switched to atitool to o/c my 7900 gto, i haven't had x1 issue anymore.
11-27-2006, 05:07 PM

my MB is also 1,03g and C1

I think 1.04g should be C2..;)
