Scratching my head over this one.

Building a computer for a buddy and had it up and running(breaking in) and then he brought me a new Video card and another Raptor HD to install. Since he wants the 2 raptors in a raid0 I started installing OS from scratch again(WinXPpro).
Make a long story short once I installed everything updated etc... I went to give it a start at OCing. I uped the FSB to 210 in the softmenu.

Once it gets past the bios screen and goes to mount the raid container it says there aren't any(ie not found)
So I backed down the fsb to 205 and up the vcore to 1.75. Then it just hangs at the raid startup screen.

Placed everything back to stock and it boots fine....

Here are all the stats on the Rig(he bought them not me).
MB: Abit IC7-G
CPU: Intel p4 2.6 800fsb HT
Mem: Kingston HyperX DDR400 PC3200 2x512
Vid: ATI Radeon 9800 AIW
2-Raptors in a stripe set
1 WD 200gig eide
1 TDK DVD Burner
Floppy
5 case fans

- Lock the AGP/PCI Frequences to 66/33
- N/B Strap: 800
- Disable the last two options under Advanced chipset settings. (CPC and tRDA)
- Up the vcore and vdimm a notch or two.
