I am currently running as follows:
Corsair 650TX PSU
Q9450
2x2gb Corsair DDR2 1066 (Newegg.com - CORSAIR XMS2 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X4096-8500C5C G - Desktop Memory)
XFX 5750 1GB GPU
Xigmatek Rifle
Windows Vista SP2
Temps are fine...fans running at speed...with latest FDa BIOS (no failed BIOS flashes). Any attempt at saving settings for overclocking leads to a cycle of 3 soft reboots and then a fourth with a slightly distorted long beep followed by what seems like a boot but with NO video.
After multiple power resets and a PSU switch off I can enter the BIOS where a warning message states that visible settings may not match actual settings. So the settings appear to be overclocked but at POST and boot into Windows everything is at stock.
I've followed the MANY posts regarding settings for MCH/CPU/DRAM and tried most of them but end up with the same symptoms above. I seem to remember when first built having the system up and running at 4.0ghz before I installed Windows. Now I can only boot to Windows on stock settings even if i try the old saved settings.
UD3Ps seem to be VERY picky about voltages/memory/settings. Much more so than the many Asus/Epox boards I've owned.
Any ideas?
