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?

what RAM are you using? What steps are you following to OC?
Well, I'm using OCZ PC2 6400 4-4-4, 2GB RAM.
I'm increasing the CPU Host Frequency to 210, and the multipler is 10X
He's using OCZ pc2-6400 on auto timings (presumably 5-5-5-15), I've just advised him to set the right vdimm and see if it boots properly then.
EDIT~ beat me to it :p
He says it still fails to boot when going beyod stock speeds. Any help would be appreciated, as I advised him on this build and its quite embarrasing when it fails to deliver! :p
Have you tried setting a lower (much lower) ram frequencey?
Set your ram to its lowest possible speed and 5-5-5-15 timings and then try to OC your CPU.
Bhavv, I tried that the first time, but it still rebooted. Krumm suggested that it might be Intel's Speedstep coming into effect.
Turn off speed step, make sure Vcore isn't too low, raise the CPU:RAM ratio and try booting directly at 266mhz.
It will be under advanced bios settings.
perhaps in the advanced Bios settings, there's something like a CPU FEATURE option somewhere?
Inside, there might be thing like EIST, or speedstep tech..
Can't believe there's nothing in the BIOS..
