    i measure all voltages with multimeter (vdimm on the 7th pin in DIMM socket and vcore on the mosfet's leg). so....

    @ 260x10 (CoreCenter @ 1.80vcore), BIOS 1.4B1

    IDLE ---> 1.77v and 3.88v
    LOAD ---> 1.82v and 3.82v

    as a matter of fact i'm not using SATA, just PATA. as for SATA it's advised to use 3 and 4 ports when overclcoking and locking AGP at 67 (if you didn't know that already).

    i'm using Fortron/Source 530W with one HDD and CDRW, GF4Ti4200.
    rails fly little bit higher at 12.20v/5.20v/3.40v LOAD

    i don't have any SATA drive so can't check if it might be the problem

    I'm on bios 1.51 and ocz powerstream rails are like 12.20v on the 12v 3.35 on the 3.3 line and 5v rail is even 5v. I don't have a multimeter to test, but this is what I get from the bios, I'm not sure how acurate it really is. my cpu temps are around 35-39c load. 3 sets of tccd all work fine in memtest. but as soon as I overclock past stock and go into windows, problems occur. For example I tried 2.6ghz and lowered ht link to 3x. agp/pci lock is set at 66, but it seems to lock fine in clockgen. I am using sata 3and4 in raid0, and that seems ok. I ran prime 95 at stock almost 18hrs on small fft torture test, didn't get a single error, but I ran the same test after setting to 2.6 and passed up to test 3 and then system reboot and windows xp screen just hangs until I hold power button. Normally you would get an error and prime will automatically stop, but in this case system just randomly reboots itself. I am really out of ideas here and I'm begging for advice. neo2 is week 41 on nf3 chip. could this be a bad bios? or is board just shot from too much ddr booster? I never ran booster over 3.5v mostly it was between 3v and 3.3v. cooling is not really an issue here, so it's either bios, power flux., or faulty board. I thought it might be the cpu at first, but how do you explain 18hrs of prime with no errors f the cpu was at fault? i tried low vcore and vcore up to 1.72, fastwrites is off, everything else like nv/ati is disabled, I read the msi 939 thread and I'm following all the advice. I also lowered oc to 2.4 and 2.5 and adjusted ram voltage and vcore acordingly.
