I kept the NB Volts on auto because I think on OC (crazy) it is regulating at 2.21V. And for SOME reason this version (0701)of BIOS will only let you go up to 1.85V on manual adjust

Sorry, NB Volts n OC(crazy) is at 1.62V... Gonna retry tests on manual 1.85V.

Whoa, you might wanna rethink that 2.0v on PLL... good way to kill something

Try 1.5-1.6v

Yeah, I only adjust one setting at a time, when it gets tricky is when one setting can be upped while another can be downed to compensate. Thanks for that, because it appears thats what was hanging the system. CpuPLL is now 1.6V, and its "stable" playing Bioshock which is only my 2nd "real world" test. 1st is 3dMark2006. Now it's time to start using Prime95 eh? What is PLL anyway? I only know of a Phased Lock Loop from electronics

I might add that 1.6v in bios uses 1.7v on PLL....I usually set mine to 1.5v
