Clocking
1. Make sure that you have the latest chipset drivers and flash the board to the most recent bios version
2. On the main bios screen press Ctrl+F1 to open the advanced options within the menus
3. In the Advanced Bios Features Menu, Disable all of the following: CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E), CPU Thermal Monitor 2(TM2), CPU EIST Function
4. In the PC Health Status menu, set the FAN Speed Control Method to "Legacy" & FAN Speed Control Mode to "PWM" to maintain highest speed
5. Go into the MB Intelligent Tweaker (MIT) menu at the bottom of the page, set the System voltage control to "Manual"
6. These boards have a default VDIMM of 1.8v, set the VDIMM to co-ordinate with your ram. The Geil I have is specced as 2.1v so I have mine set to +0.3v
7. Set the MCH Voltage to +0.1v
8. Set the FSB Voltage to +0.1v
9. Set the VCORE to 1.45v - Please be aware that this will increase temps!
10. Set the CPU Host Clock Control to "Enable"
11. Set the System Memory Multiplier to "2x"
12. You're set to go, just increase the System bus Frequency to Overclock
13. I would reccommend that you use Intels TAT to monitor temps
 
have you tried overclocking with just 2 sticks of ram in? Maybe one of the ram slots is not as good as the others or faulty...

thats from the brill guide by Monstermunch
if you look in the motherboard section its the sticky at the top

I have already done all of those things, I do know how to overclock but there is a problem with something that is preventing me from doing so.
See this more recent thread for more info:

It seems that there is a possibility that the PSU I have is causing problems based on a couple of other people with the same board/PSU.
I know it’s not the board because I RMA’ed it.

have you tried overclocking with just 2 sticks of ram in? Maybe one of the ram slots is not as good as the others or faulty...

Already tried the ram in different slots, different number of sticks and different RAM altogether.

Have also tried different voltages, timings, multipliers, and I have run Memtest all night.
