.... atm i have it at 380x8 3040mghz with ram running at 475mghz.

Do you mean DDR2-950, or DDR2-475?

.... i know this cpu can go beyond 3.2ghz because i had it a 3.29 on ddr2 266.

Do you really mean DDR2-266, or perhaps DDR2-533?

Please post the details, including model numbers, of ALL your system components, and also give details of ALL your system settings for OCs that worked and ones that didn't work.

Also, remember that CPUs vary, especially over time, so your particular CPU is not guaranteed to OC to any given speed. Doubling the FSB of a CPU is a major overclock; trying to go further than that is going to be tough.

Skip 400-405 FSB and i think you're fine.
