Problems with Gigabyte GA-P43-ES3G

First of all, sorry for my grammar =), not from UK.

Im trying to overclock my E6600, but i don´t want to do the same with my memory sticks.
Ive tryed a lot of different settings in bios. But i can´t seem to find a system memory multiplier that makes my computer stable. I can´t raise the multiplier either, its at 9x already.
Everything ive tested so far have resulted in computer crashing.
My memory is 1066 pc8500 xms 2 cosair.
I saw that overclockers.co.uk are selling this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-029-OE So i know its possible. But how i dont know :/.

I have Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU Cooler , Corsair 650 w HX. Other then that i don´t know what could be intresting hehe. Well i have Radeon 5770 and samsung F3 disk.
The real problem i have is to set the memory speed right. What ever preset i set in system multiblier, 3.0A or 4.0A and so on it crashes after a while. No matter how much or little i clock. If i dont tuch the System memory multiplier it works. But i dont want to set to high FSB becouse im not sure what my XMS 2 sticks can tollerate. I rather don´t clock the memory at all tbh. 1066 is more then enough atm.

Firstly, the FSB speed of the motherboard is limited to 410MHz any higher and it wint boot.

You do not have to use the 3A or 4A settings. Try the B, C D ones as well. Use that one that lets you RAM run at close to its default speed

Ive tryed every letter there is =), None works without crashing so far.
You can use any without crashing ?. If so ill have to check my memorys agains so their not broken.
