What you're referring to is teh CPU multiplier right? You can't change that on Intel chips. You can only up the FSB. Change the Auto to disabled and change the FSB.

I have NOT been able to overclock my 2.4 at all. If I change the FSB, it refuses to POST.

I'm regretting to have bought a MSI board myself. The price was good but that was it pretty much. The bios flashing procedure is more than unusual and I have a dead board now...

I've done that. Otherwise you can't adjust the FSB. It jsut doesn't overclock at all.

When you disable that function, does the MHz under become yellow?

Don't recall the color, but I believe it changes. I'll check here in a few.

It does turn yellow and I can adjust it. Just for kicks I up'd it by 1MHz. No POST. This is incredibly frustrating.
This is what I have set as default. Well rather what is default on the board.



Any ideas? I'm thinking maybe its the graphics card. I guess its possible. But you'd think and MSI card would like the MSI board.

So what you're saying is that you can't adjust the enable mode to disable mode, the one over the 133MHz?? You must press enter and then you must use you're up and down arrow to select disable mode, and then press enter again...if th 133MHz fsb turn from grey color to yellow you must use Page up and down buttons to adjust the MHz...

No. I can adjust it. But even if I just move it to 1MHz more it doesn't post. I posted the pics to see if there was anything else that might be an issue.

from what i read on the msi board, fuzzy logic isnt very stable when used =\

flashing to bios v1.3 may fix your issues but I doubt it. gl
