This may be way to much info, but after seeing some not post enough and have long a$$ threads, when all they had to do was offer a lil more info, i figured to be safer, and less a hassle.

I do have some programs that monitor cpu, and memory speed, voltage, temp and what not. Sisoft Sandra bieng the most informative.

again any assistance in explaing how and y would b appreciated. I'm pretty hardware and software literate, went to school for network engineering...some time ago, so plz feel free to explain in any manner u may choose.

thx again

Bank 0 : 512MB DDR-SDRAM 3.0-4-4-8 2CMD
Bank 1 : 512MB DDR-SDRAM 3.0-4-4-8 2CMD
reallly need to fix the timings on this try 2.5-3-2-7 @2.65v
and for the core go up in 5mhz on the fsb at a time till it maxes out
