ASUS P5B-Deluxe; Problems & Fixes

[t_p]

DDR2 800 is NOT 1:1

DDR2 533 IS 1:1

Set memory to 533. leave everything at AUTO. Set RAM in the NB menu to AUTO. LEAVE everything at default.

Raise FSB to 300. Save, Reboot. See what happens.

What RAM and CPU are you using? Most any Intel CPU will handle 300 FSB EASY!!!! Try it.

CPU = Core 2 E6400
Ram = G.SKILL 2GB 6400 2GBNQ

If I set FSB to 300 then memory gets bumped to 600 automatically.. And when you say leave everything at default, are you referring to the CPU settings too? (Ratio,C1E, etc)

BTW, tried it like this.. system locked up before fully loading desktop...
