(You may even need to pull 1 stick of ram before rebooting, can't remember exactly. Just remember it was a real PITA if you went too high..)

    Some folks said you could save the original setting as a profile and restore it, but if I remember correctly that never worked for me...

    One of the nice things about PhII is that it will run much higher NB speeds than the PhI's. Mine has no problem hitting 2600 @ 1.275v's

    To test it without having to reset you could probably set the HT to 10x and then bring the HTRef clock up in AOD until you hit 2200, test it there and if everything runs stable bump it up to 11x until you find it's limit....

    Hope this helps a little...
    I've tried to sort this out and with my BIOS just to load optimized defaults was enough , the NB multi was then reset to it's original 9x.
