Could I have some help please??

After going a little nuts...





I decided to settle things down and get it stable as a decent speed, without having a huge temp problem... So I opted for:





Now apon doing all of this, I started up my cancer research program and within 20 secs one of the tasks failed for some reason (I thought orthos was meant to be the bees knees??) anyways, here's my idle and load temps:





Now when I try and do a memory test (sandra etc) it came up with my timings being rather loose (5-5-5-15) so I've looked through CPU-Z and I saw my memory should be able to do 3-3-3-9 at 200Mhz. Well, here's a screenie of it at 4-4-4-12 as when I try the lower one, my board wont boot and says it has a bios error, please put in a floppy in to re-flash the bios.. (After this happened, my heart sank, but now I just clear the bios and start again..) Anyways, the screen shots...





Now am I doing something very wrong or is something set up wrong somewhere as I still think I should be able to get faster timings than what I got..

Can anyone please help me??

Try running the RAM @ the lowest divider and setting the 1066 strap on the NB

What volts u using? Try 2.1-2.2 maybe with a fan over the top of the RAM.

Make sure EIST and thermal throttling are off

What cooling are you running?

The volts on the ram is 2.1v..

How low do I go down with the multiplier to see how far I can go with my ram??

I think the throttling etc is on still, but I will check.

CPU cooler is a Zalman 9700
