Can't change Vcore boot or eventual HELP!

Forum Overclocking : Chipsets & Bios Can't change Vcore boot or eventual HELP!

Word :    Username :           
 

Hi everyone, I need alittle help w/ overclocking my rig. Here is my specs:

i3- 530 2.93Ghz
mobo = EVGA P55 E655
psu = 750watt cosair
ram(x2) = cosairCM3X2G1333
gpu = NViDia GeForce 9800 GT

Only setting that I can change to oc so far is the cpu frequency, which i set to 180; 185 causes BSOD. I cant change the multiplier, I think its locked on the i3's. I tried changing Vcore, under the assumption that it will allow me to increase my cpu frequency even more, but if i change it to any thing besides [AUTO], my comp wont even post past start-up screen. Please help, I dont understand why I can't change my vcore.
