Stuck
 

Well i am not an overclocker but atleast i tryed it :).

Setup :
_______

- AMD XP2400+ TB - Epox 8RDA+ rev 1.1 - 2*256 Corsair Pc3200 (XMS I think).

First thing i did was looking how far my fsb would go , went over 200 but i took 200.

I increased my VCore to 1.75V (in .jpg its wrong vcore).
Set my mp to 11.

11*200 = 2200mhz

I booted , but couldn't run 3dmark2001.

So I think the ram is slowing me down , but i don't know nothing about ram and stuff and steppings and how far i can increase my ram voltage.

Ram :
____

Freq. : 200.5MHZ
FSB : DRAM = 5:6
stepping = 2.5-3-3-8





thx

first of al, set your devider too 1/1 , 2/2 , 3/3 , 4/4 , 5/5 or 6/6 so that your RAM runs at the same speed as your FSB = better performance with AMD, seccondly, when running 3dmark2001, does it suddenly give a bluescreen and a reboot, or does it just exit 3dmark back to windows?

just goes back to windows.

hmmm, if it was your RAM which could not handle the speed and timings, you'dd get an error message(bluescreen)

up that Vcore 1 step, maybe that will help, or if it is your vidcard which is clocked too high or is getting not enough power, clock it down a bit, dunno, trial and error ;)

edit: I envy your 12V line :D

Where is that devider located because i don't know what i need to change.

My videocard is Aopen Gf4Ti4200 128MB @250/550 mhz (standard).
how can i up my power for my vidcard ??.

LOL my 12V isn't good , well bought my supply with my Aopen case HB600 or something like that :p

Mhh put my mem on this : 2.5-4-4-9 CPU @2200MHZ FSB@200(score 10255)

Run 3Dmark2001 and some images are shocking and i got a lower score then this setup XP2400+ @ 166FSB ram timings : 2.5-3-3-8 (score 11700)


But can it be because of some processes are running in the background ?

Put your memory timings on auto (not SPD) and they should be synch with the FSB. Else you might want to set it to a 1:1 divider.
This should be in the same menu as the CPU settings. But you might have to put your ram to expert settings to activate it.

Try the following sequence:
www.memtest86.com, run this memtest too see if your memory is giving problems.
www.mersenne.org, Run prime95 torture test for an hour (or even better a day) should give you most, if not all CPU problems.

its set to a divider 1:1

run 3dmark again , it freezed my image --> reset.

Pc freezed while he was doing some heavy work , so its the cpu right ?

CPU Vcore 1.81V.
CPU temp 40° Idle.
Mobo @ 23° idle.

Btw freestyler gonna do Prime later on and for that memtest you need a floppy and i don't have that ;)

Any ideas ?

Memtest also comes as a bootable CDROM image :)
