So to fix it, I lowered the multiplier and raised the fsb to force the strapping since I couldn't figure out how to change it. If you have any suggestions or know what the strapping changes at what fsb, ie 425mhz then that would be helpful. I am going to try a couple of things this week, cooling adjusting the voltage on the mch and northbridge. I am also going to try raising the fsb up to 475mhz to see if I can run at that speed, although it only gets me to 3.8Ghz, I have seen plenty running at this speed.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestions, I will try a few of them,

I _THINK_ the strapping changes at 416 to 417 FSB. It does so on my DQ6.
Just set it to 416 and run som ememory benchmark (Everest is a good one).
Then jump up to 417 and run the same benchmark again to see if a big change occur, then you have your strapping value.
