help! system instability even at stock

[Killa-AMD]

Asus A7nx8-e deluxe
2500+ mobile
mcp600/mcw6002/maze 4 gpu
yadda yadda

I'm at 200x9.5 or 1900 mhz. I tried to goto multi of 10 or even FSB of 205 and system won't past POST. I upped vcore up to 1.825 and still nothing. I can't figure it out...what gives? I have a decent chip IQFYA MPMW.

I'm playing a few games and got BSOD one time and in another game it just quit the game. The video card isn't oc'd. Its a 9800 pro.

help!

Check your temperatures and try remounting. You could have a bad mount cause the block not to make full contact with your cpu.

i've remounted .......temps are 38 idle, 43-45 load.

"stock" for that CPU is 14x133mhz. your problem may lie in the fsb/ram area

[jackrungh]

yeah you seem to be pushing your ram too far... is it generic?
is your ratio 1:1?

OCZ pc3200 LL. 5-3-2-2 timings....its set sync'd at moment. Whats ram have to do with multiplier?

OCZ pc3200 LL. 5-3-2-2 timings....its set sync'd at moment. Whats ram have to do with multiplier?
nothing, but it has a lot to do with the fsb. the ram speed when set to sync with the fsb is equal to 2x the fsb, thus at 200*9.5, the ram is operating at 400mhz along with the fsb. at true 'stock' for a 2500+M, the fsb and ram are at 266mhz (133x2). try increasing voltage to your nothbridge and ram. also try setting it to 14*133 to see if it's working correctly at true stock. if it's ok at that speed, the problem lies in the ram/fsb, which can be helped by increaseing ram and NB voltages. if there are still problems, then the cpu may be bad, or the MB.

[Killa-AMD]

ok will do. The ram is at 2.8v already but I'm not sure if I can increase NB voltage. I'll try tonight and see what I can find out. any other ideas?

[jackrungh]

you really also should set it to the nforce2 optimum:

2-2-3-11

it probably isnt the cause of troubles, but itll help

[Killa-AMD]

i'll do that.......the system is even unstable at 200x9.5. I got prime95 errors last night after about 3 hours doing a blend test. I'm now at 1600 mhz ....solid however. Something is seriously wrong. Other ideas?
