Hi,
I am after a little overclocking advice/help.
I have clocked my MOBO (Biostar TP45 HP) FSB to 440 with an Intel 8400 and this gives me a nice 3.9Mhz. It is stable using Prime 95 and temps are very good under load. I do not need to overvolt anything (apart from RAM) running at this speed.
I am trying to get to over 4.0Mhz, but most times I go over 440 (say 445) on the FSB, the system starts, but fails to recognise the 9800GTX+ Graphics card. If on the odd occasion it does recognise the card, it seems ok and stable when I run Prime 95, although I only run it for a short (30 min) time. I have tried upping the voltage through the CPU VCore but it makes no difference.
I have disabled all the usual (I think!) things in the BIOS.
Can anybody help, or do you think I just have a system that has reached it's limit at 3.96Mhz.

Thanks in advance
Marek
