So I just picked up some OCZ PC3200 EL Platinum rev.2 RAM, 1G (2X512) to be exact. I ran OCZ's version of Memtest to find out what the tightest timings I coul run without any errors. Well I ried 2-3-2-5 at 220 FSB and it ran fine, no errors.
However when I applied those timing to the BIOS and tried to boot up I got the screaming chick saying, "System failure due to CPU overclocking" message. What does this mean? I really could use some help here because I am a complete newb when it comes to overclocking.
BTW Vdimm was set at 2.75V. Since I really didn't think that increasing the voltage would make much a of a diiference for timings at that low of a FSB I haven't tried upping it to 2.85. If you guys think that will help I'll give it a go.
Here is my set up...
