Exclamation Need help with my Volt's

Here is the thing. I think I hit the roof of my OC. I have my E8400 stable at 3.23Ghz, but can not go higher. Could it be my volt's are too low? I have no clue how to change the volt's. Or if this is just as high as I can go. If I go higher, my sata drive is not detected. I am hoping to get this card soon (http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applicatio...&Sku=P450-9124). So, really, should I try to punch this higher or just wait. Any help is appreciated.

put your PCI-e frequency from Auto to 100 in BIOS...that's your problem most likely

edit:...did you buy this system or build it yourself?

I bought it, but they used most of th eparts I asked for. Also, I have tried that on the PCI-E to 100, but still will not work. If I only use my IDE drive, I can OC this to 3.8 stable. Could it be that the PCI-E controller is the problem? If so, and I upgrade to my new board, will I still have the same problem?
