Failed CPU OC

[kalniel]

Ah I see. However, my BIOS says that SATA/AHCI Mode is disabled, is that it?

I would presume it's in IDE mode then (hopefully), so try plugging it into a different coloured SATA connector as the next test

Unfortunately, I had no luck on that.

I just saw an option in BIOS called Onboard IDE controller, should I leave it for disable that?

I just disabled it and nothing.

I really need the HDD to load windows, as it has Data that I need.

Would it be advisable to just get a new HDD?

Hi guys, I have a E2180 running at 2GHz, installed on a Gigabyte GA-G33M-DS2R/S2.

Whenever I try to OC it above 2.1GHz, it simply reboots to default settings. Any tips on how to stop this?

Please mention all setting of ur Bios, like voltages, spread spectrum, ram timings, etc...

i am running 2180 @ 3300 mhz, and i can boot the system @ 3700 MHZ but due to air cooling i can not run applications at this speed, try also the below link that shows my OC setting,

Hi Voodoo, I'm currently at fail-safe defaults, but before my RAM was at 2.1V and 4-4-4-15. It booted sucessfully. However, roughly a half hour after I flashed my BIOS, Windows said it was shutting down for no reason, then it wouldn't boot Windows up after that.

please take a page and pen, then go to your Bios and note all setting related to CPU, RAM, Voltages, etc.. and let me know
i will try to get the manual of ur motherboard so i may guide you

Okay, I'll go now.

[Mungo0]

Okay, here's what I've got.

CPU Clock Ratio - 10X
CPU Frequency - 2.00GHz
CPU Clock Control - Disabled
CPU Host Frequency - 200
Memory Frequency - 800
CPU Vcore - 1.32500V
CAS Latency Time - 5
DRAM RAS to CAS Delay - 5
DRAM Precharge - 5
Precharge Delay (tRAS) - 15

Need any more?

also mention what values do you change to OC?

Well, I enable CPU clock control then I change the Host Frequency to 210, but the system just reboots. But OCing a system won't be useful if the system refuses to boot Windows

Is it the HDD or the Mobo that's at fault here?

[Mungo0]

Another thing, the flashing cursor before Windows is being loaded doesn't come up.

[Hunain]

TBH, im bowled out with your case, perhaps its a fault with the mobo, also, now it seems even more so the case. Can you take it back and get it checked maybe?

Maybe, but do you think it could be a dead HDD?

[Hunain]

No, i dont think so, the motherboard would POST i think, BIOS is not related to HDD, but even if you think so, you could perhaps use an older HDD, connect it and see, if the HDD is not working, the computer will start and most probably say something like, Boot device not found. It wont be completely blank.

Oh, no, the system does POST, but then it doesn't load. the last thing the POST says is "Verifying DMI Pool Data" Or something to that, but then stops. The HDD doesn't boot up on the other PC...
