am i not understanding the straps correctly, or is there a fsb limitation to the 400 ref freq or something? trying to run at 460fsbx8.5 or even 8

also having the issue again where in bios, have cpu and mem settings to manual, but once windows loads, system is running at default. ??? very frustrating, have to pull the power and the button battery, allow complete power drain and cmos to reset (~1 hour) then it will apply.
I had this issue once I had DX38BT,
it seems that Memory Frequency of 1600 is some fancy thing in DX38BT.
I never had a chance to boot up using 1600 Memory Freq set @ Bios.
