Hello people, I'm new here at the forums and have a question rightaway.
I have a Intel Q6600 (G0) on a Gigabyte X38-DQ6 motherbord. It's cooled by a Scyth Mugen and I'm running Crucial Ballistix memory. So far so good you would say.
But now I want to OC my processor a bit. I've done some reading and it seems that it is the best to have the memory running at 1:1 with the FSB. Also I needed to lock my PCI Express bus at 100 Mhz.
I changed my FSB from 266 to 270 and booted Windows Vista. This went smooth and after testing it for some minutes with Prime95 I went back to the bios and raised the FSB to 275. I didn't chance the vCore yet, so that is @ stock 2.75 if I remember correctly.
Then I wanted to boot Windows again but after updating the DMI pool it gives my the message that something in Windows is corrupt or missing. I have to insert the Vista cd to repair my Windows it says.
When I go back to my bios and put the FSB back to 266 I can boot Windows normally again.
Does anyone knows what I'm doing wrong?
