I am new to this forum, at least in writing, but I am having a problem with the new board and cpu I put together yesterday. This Gigabyte board has more options than my Shuttle but is more confusing to me. I cannot raise the FSB much above 133 without Windows erroring out after five minutes.
Some options in CMOS that I do have setup are 1t, CAS# 2, everything at default voltage. I use a CoolMaster HHC-001 hs/f and it keeps it fairly cool. The northbridge is a straight heatsink, which I don't like and may change that.
Results at 140: Windows will load but a KMOD UNHANDLED EXCEPTION will happen in about 5 minutes.
Results at 144: Windows will error right after POST.
Did Memtest86 and all it did when rebooting was give codes:
AX:0212
BX:XXXX
@X:XXXX
DX:XXXX
X=dont remember
My Shuttle did better than this and I'm kinda disappointed in this board.
Any ideas on what I can do to tweak this board better without blowing it. I may RMA it for an EPox if this doesn't become promising.
Thanks in advance.:shoot3:
