I am currently running a 2.6c with abit is7 mobo along with a gig of corsair xms 3700 ram. It will run fine at stock speeds but if I over clock at all, then it seems to crash. If i oc to anything like 210x13, then it will boot to windows but prime 95 is an instant error. It seemed fine playing games at 210x13 though. If i raise to 215x13 at vcore 1.65v, then it will not even boot to windows. I do not think it is a problem with memory because memtest will run fine. Is this a problem with the cpu or the motherboard? Or am I completely missing a very important setting in the bios? Any help would be appreciated.

I updated my bios to 1.5. That didnt help much. I also tried disabling the last two GAT settings. That didnt seem to work either. I tried running my computer with only one stick of ram. Prime95 doesnt fail immediately at 210x13 but it sure doesnt seem like its completing any iterations.... although the computer does stay running. It does this with both sticks of ram so I dont think one stick of ram is bad. Any suggestions as to what I should do now? Any help would be appreciated once again!
Try manually setting your memory timings. Set them to 3-3-3-7 and see what happens. As I have stated on pg 7 or 8 there does not seem to be very much difference in performance when changing the memory timings with the 865 and 875 chipset. Set the the PSB to 800 and run 1:1 at stock speeds ie 233mhz if it does not boot then I would say either you got a bum P4C or the memory is not compatible.
