I tried reflashing a couple of times between BIOS F4m and F4j and that didn't seem to help any. All I can think of is that it's corrupting the OS in some way on a failed OC. I need to test my memory good I guess and make sure they're performing like they should be. I have 2x3GB Corsair 1600Mhz Dominators installed.

I did a clean install again and I think I finally got it up and running fresh. Only thing I did notice though is that I got a blue screen when installing Vista which I believe was due to me enabling AHCI in the BIOS but I don't know. In a couple of parts of the Vista install it also seemed like it would take a lot longer than it should to go on to the next screen or start the install. I think the SATA ports were giving me issue since I was trying to switch from the Gigabyte ones to the Intel southbridge ones. Anyway it's running now so fingers crossed that it won't do it again.

I need to get my Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme w/ 1366 bolt-through so I can start actually pushing the board. The stock Intel heatsink/fan doesn't allow much headroom past 3.6Ghz.
