Problem with video card at 3.6g. The computer locks up when loading windows with a BSOD saying that I should do a memory test and or try a other video card. Dont know what Happen, everything worked great for a while and its only after I tried to go at 3.8g when everything crashed. I've read that the P5AD2 Premium didnt like my ram at 600mhz or 3:4 so I keeped it at 450 (1:1). Theres no problem when I boot in safe mode.

Now for the Video card, I cant really pinpoint the problem. I've set the PCIX frequence at 100mhz, to auto then slowly raising the frequency 'til I reach 110. Nothing worked. Sometime I can get in windows for 1 or 2 min then it crash. I've reinstalled the drivers with no luck.

Here my specs in the bios:

CPU frequency: 225
DRAM frequency:450
PCI X :100
PCI:33.33
MVolt:auto
Vcore:1.4125v

The only setting that is stable is at 221 x 16. I also set the PEG setting to slow for default setting of the video card. Tried to find anything similar in the forum but nothing. :shrug:

Im lost.....
