Put in a new motherboard. but i have a bit of a problem. the two boards are different brands so my fist raid had to be broken. I wasnt thinking and reformated the drive.
Can anyone recommend software that might give me a shot at recovering the my documents folder. Preferablyfree but im will to try anything.
I have done some serching, but very few seem to be able to this type of advanced recovery.
thanks

try there software, you'll be more than pleased with what you get for 20 dollars.

I know a lot of those were free but some were not.are you allowed to update the programs to the latest versions?

Since my first attempt at overclocking caused me so many problems, should I try again with my new motherboard?
This one is a gigabyte EP43-UD3L.
Some of what I read said my particular model old motherboard was a good overclocker but, for the most part I heard that Intel makes bad motherboards and I am guessing that is what caused my problem.
Again I'm just trying to 3 GHz to get rid of the bottleneck on my graphics card.

Sure try it again, some CPU's(of the same stepping and model) will overclock better than others. i'm able to squeeze 3GHz out of my 7750 kuma anything over is unstable i can get up to 3.5GH unstable but it dies after 30 seconds.

Intel certainly don't make good overclocking boards. However, the one you have there should be pretty good.

Sounds like overvoltage. but no its not normal. and yes all you should have to do is reset the bios. unless your bios supports OC reset

As long as you're sensible with the voltages, overclocking doesn't destroy hardware, no matter what anyone else may tell you. if you adjust the voltages it will reduce the lifetime of your hardware, but since overvolting a graphics card is pretty tricky to do (and is never recommended - EVER) you should only be risking your CPU.

So I finally got up the stones to overclock my E 6600 to 3 GHz. The overclock is simply to relieve the bottleneck on my GTX 260 core 216. Currently I am running at 2.66 GHz. When I raised the front side bus high enough to get to 3 GHz it did not boot successfully and the board restored its default settings.
I really am not looking to set records. And they didn't think I would have to up any voltages. I really don't understand messing with voltages. Although I would like to keep it to a minimum, to avoid reducing life of my CPU.
Any advice?
By the way the board I'm using is a gigabyte EP43-UD3L.

FSB OCs everything try reducing your memory timings.

You need to reduce the memory multiplier to overclock at all.

Bad caps is well known around aD, and is a common suggestion to people with older PCs that are faulty.

You might need to overvolt your CPU a LITTLE bit. Why don't you post a screen cap to show us what your settings are like?
