How did you try to OC the processor? Not all nForce 2 boards will run at 400mhz FSB and some need a BIOS upgrade. Also the 2500's are clock locked so you cant change the multiplier, just the bus speed. You may also need to raise the processor voltage a little to get it to run at 3200, from 1.65v to 1.7v.

What motherboard do you have? What BIOS settings have you changed?

My motherboard is MSI nf2 Ulture.and I didn't chang ang seting in bios.
Do you think that's the problem of Cpu?
Thank you

You have to go into the BIOS and change the front side bus setting from 166 to 200. It should be under Advanced Chipset Features, FSB Frequency.
