Nice overclock, to get over 274 you need to get a modded bios. I think only beta 1 & 2 fixes it. AFAIK beta 5,4,3 still lock it at 274.Cyber-Mav said:

I think Asrock and Asus are the same company, Asrock make cheap budget boards and if they made them overclock well then nobody would buy the Asus boards and they would lose money. I doubt they will release an official bios with higher HTT. Thats what I think anyway.

I know this is a daft question but can you use a normal pci card in that pci express slot? the long one i mean? or is it just for a dedicated pci express graphics card?
The problem is my zalman cooler on my geforce 6800gt agp takes up a couple of pci slots next to it.

No, you can't put a regular PCI card into a PCI-Express x16 slot.Jimbo said:

Lol I thought so. Oh well thanks for your help mate.
I read on another forum that the reason there is a htt lock is because the boards components have problems with running any higher.Cyber-Mav said:how come there is a lock in place on the htt if it the board can handle higher
wonder why asrock has done this? do you think they will ever release an official bios that supports a higher htt speed?
Since Asrock boards are budget boards the components are not as great as normal Asus boards, there is already problems running 1T for some of the dual sata's around. I have a dual sata myself running the ocwbeta2 bios with the vcore mod, currently htt is at 280 with my opteron 146 and its rock solid stable, although I always feel my opty can go higher but I seem to always get random cold boot problems when I do go higher.
Still, Im pretty pleased for a 50 quid board!

Im also having problems shutting down or restarting. It takes about 3 or 4 minutes to do it.

Yeah Im having some right headaches getting usb devices such as cameras and printers to work.. it keeps asking for files that I dont have.
My front USB ports on my case caused random reboot and all sorts of odd problems when I had them connected. I connected them twice to make sure I had done it right, and the problems still occured. So now Ive disconnected them completely.
My case is an Antec AMG1000 or whatever it was called btw.

Next time it asks, point it to either the Windows folder or the Windows/system32 folder or maybe the Windows/system32/drivers and see if it finds them.
Soldato
Treid that and it finds nothing. I searched the entire drives, maybe I should look on line again?

Unbelivable it really is.. it was missing dll files amongst others which I just got of the web, it then finished the install of the device and now when I connect it it tells me it cant be detected.. christ.
