Fellow computer betherin, please help. When I attempt to change my Q6600's fsb from any speed other than the default, I encounter a strange problem... It never goddam works!!!

It stays at the newly set speed for a short while, but 2 - 3 minutes after login, the cpu clocks itself down again. 2.5 to 2.4 within 4 seconds.

If I try overclocking again while logged in, same problem. Stays at the set speed then automatically clocks down after a short while like it has a mind of its own.

When i try the dynamic overclocking function, it just causes stability issues, not during load, but strangely a few seconds after load.

Intel eist off, speedstepping off, spread spectrum off, DOC off. Tried overcloking with bios, clockgen, and ntune. Voltages untouched, temperatures all normal. fsb/memory ratio = 2/3. Latest bios version.

Im a first time overclocker, but I cant find any information on this problem anywhere. I can only hope Its down to my own inexperience.

Vista 32. Q6600. 1gb 800mhz. antec 900 case. Akasa bubble cpu cooler.
8800gtx. msi pn6 mobo, nvidia chipset.
