639963	2008-02-13 19:28:00	I have 2x 1024 sticks of DDR2 800 ram. If I set my bios to DDR2 800 my computer will not load win xp. In fact it will not load with any setting except Auto. Any Ideas? Cpu X6800 M/B Asus P5B-E	JJJJJ (528)
639964	2008-02-13 19:39:00	Are you running the RAM in dual channel mode? If so, try changing the motherboard to 400 rather than 800, or just leave it on auto. Maybe thats even the better option. I don't know a heap about that type of thing, SolMeister is very good with that.	wratterus (105)

639966	2008-02-13 19:52:00	Dont know if this helps, but whats the speed of the CPU?? From the ASUS site: My motherboard has been listed on ASUS CPU support list as being able to support FSB1333 processors. However, after checking Intel website, the north bridge chipset only suppose to support up to FSB1066. Does this mean there is going to be some limitation to its FSB1333 support? Yes, as the FSB1333 support was implmented based on overclocking north bridge chipset from FSB1066 mode, while chipset does not support asynchronous frequency adjustment between FSB and RAM, the supported memory specification will differ as compare with its natively supported FSB settings, in order to keep the same FSB/RAM frequency ratio. For P965 chipsets, under FSB1333 mode, memory can only operate under the following frequencies: Originally DDR2-533 will become 533MHz1333/1066 = 667MHz Originally DDR2-667 will become 667MHz1333/1066 = 833MHz Originally DDR2-800 will become 800MHz1333/1066 = 1000MHz As for 975X chipsets: Originally DDR2-533 will become 533MHz1333/1066 = 667MHz Originally DDR2-667 will become 667MHz*1333/1066 = 833MHz Hence only when operate under 1333/667 mode, will the system operate under a FSB 1333 configuration without CPU and memory overclock or underclock. It is adviceable to adjust memory timing and its supply voltage manually if desired memory frequency cannot be achieved. And I have just purchased an ASUS P965 chipsets based motherboard with FSB1333 support, and found the system may refuse to boot when particular DIMM modules have been installed. Are there any special requirements for FSB1333 support on these motherboards? For the P5B-E update the BIOS to 1601	Speedy Gonzales (78)
