Ok so i did alot more test after making the changes you suggested. Heres the new values i set in my Bios.

My system was more stable after making those changes for sure. Instead of crashing after 2-3 sec of stress testing it last about 8 maybe. It made it through a 3dMark06 test again. Ussualy it crashes when it gets to the CPU test. I got much better scores than ussual on the CPU test with this overclocking so its working. I also got better scores on Company of Heroes performance test.

Problem is the stress test keeps failing. When it crashes its always the blue screen that comes up saying its dumping. Also in Vista the performance scoring software will crash when it tries to measure the CPU capabilities.

With all the exact same Bios settings i moved the FSB frequency to 266 again. Keeping the Ram settings you suggested but returning my CPU back to 2.4ghz. I rescored my ram using Vista's performance software and it jumped up a good deal sinse it used to be running at 800 but is now at 1066mhz. Also stress test work perfectly... and all i did was change that FSB from 333 to 266. Maybe 1.35v isnt enough?

Edit: I use OCCT for stress testing.
