I just build a new machine with an E8400 processor, the Gigabyte EP35-DS3 motherboard and 2Gb of OCZ platinum rev.2 DDR2-800 (4-4-4-15).
Having read all the stories about how easy it is to overclock this processor, I decided to have a go at it.
Result: 0
My computer does POST, starts XP and then just restarts.
I tried 400*9 (which is a minimum that everyone seems to be getting) at different Vcore settings (between 1.22 and 1.30), but the machine refuses to go beyond the XP start up screen.
DES and EIST are disabled, I flashed the BIOS to F2.
Am I the only one who isn't able to overclock this processor?
Does anyone have the same combination of processor and motherboard who could give me his detailed BIOS settings?
