So I had my Q9300 running stable at 3.22GHz for a few months, and today I decided to OC the ram.
I know nothing about it, so I just did what Aries told me in the old thread, and went +0.3V and 4-4-4-15.
Upon restart, it rapid-restarted 5 times before booting into windows, where everything worked perfectly. However, manually changing FSB was disabled, sending my CPU back to stock speed (~2.5Ghz). I put the ram back to where it was, underclocked (5-5-5-15), and tried to set the FSB back up. again, rapid re-starts, back at stock speed. Everytime I attempt to OC the CPU in the BIOS, it restarts 5 times and sets it back to default when I save it.
I've disabled C1E and Speedstep.
halp.
