BIG PROBLEM DISCOVERED:
I have localized a big problem, If it is for me only or for others I don't know.
The error looks like:
If I try to set so that the memorys will work with a divider (eg. NOT [AUTO]) then everything is OK.
If I try to set the timings to any value (that my memory would work at) (eg. NOT [AUTO]) then everything is OK.
But I CAN NOT set both the timings AND divider to [MANUAL] at the same time. It does not matter if I
set one and then save/reboot and then set the other. They can not co-exist!
If I do so I will get the "endless reboot" AKA "Double Post" and the BIOS reverts back to default.
The conclusion is that I can not use settings like 400x9 and memory at 1:1 because then I would
be forced to use the SPD timings and running DDR-800 with 5-5-5-18 is not a blast when you have memorys good for 800 @ 3-3-3-8
So... what to do? You set the memory in a propriete divider (2:3) and let the timings be set to [AUTO].
Then you up the FSB until you hit a very high roof of the memory. I mean, if you are gonna run high you
would expect to en up with 5-5-5-18 anyway.
In my case I have reached this far......

As you see I'm aware of the FSB strap at 417 so I stayed under that, with 1 MHz to spare
And since everyting is rock stable I bet I have more to add...

Thank you mr Dower for keeping us updated like a newsticker. I don't have that much time to search here and there for every new driver and the other info that
you provide for us. You're great!
