Hi guys,
Hoping someone can help me and my flatmate out...
We both bought the MSI P35 Neo 2 Mobo, Q6600 Quad Core, Different RAM, but both operating 4 Gig's worth...
Both rigs are overclocked to 3200 and well within safe voltages, I run 1.2875, he runs 1.265 both with RAM voltages of 2.10...
Anyway these have worked fine until recently - I have temps of around 35 - 40 degrees system wide idle, he has temps of 40 - 48 idle
In the last 2 weeks though, we have both had a similar problem. For no reason at all my machine will completely lock up - e.g. itunes stops playing, i can't input, mouse won't move all i get is silence. I have to do a manual reset to get the life back in my PC - I haven't noticed anything triggering this, and I have tried to replicate myself and can't... Flatmates does the same thing but his music freezes in the place it was playing...
After doing some digging, we went in to our bios's and discovered that our NB voltage was set to ridiculously high in the red, around 1.5volts, and the setting beneath this (can't remember what is is called) was set again in the red at 1.8.
We more than definitely didn't change these, they have literally jumped on their own...
Not sure if the freezing is gonna happen again, as I've posted straight away... but any ideas would be appreciated!
Thanks guys and girls,
flatman
