Ok.

1. Temps?

2. You may need 2.7vdd

3. You probably need to reflash your bios.

4. Set ram to 3/3

5. Turn cpu interface to enabled.
 
oke i put it on 202 fsb x 11 @ 1.75 vcore it looks stable i ran 3dmark2k3 cpu tests twice they made it with first test 77.1 fps ans second 11.5 sissoft sandra it performs 0.01% faster than a 3200+ in that test its at 2222 mhz now my ram timings are 3-3-3-2 dual channel 3200 mb ps ill make a post if it becomes unstable and i need to get mad at it again :>
