No offence, man.
Um, Ket is telling the truth.
It's a BUG in Intel's firmware. D1 stepping chips don't even support internal pll overvoltage in the first place.

Gigabyte did NOT fix the issue. You seem to think they did--they did NOT. I have the board. I TESTED the bios. They simply did a BAND AID for it. You want to know what happens with latest bios?

1) GO into sleep
2) wake up from sleep. Fans spin up for 5 seconds.
3) board TURNS OFF.
4) Board does a COMPLETE REPOST to BIOS, cpu and RAM count, just as if the board were completely shut off.
5) You boot to the OS choices menu (if you have one).
6) Windows says "resuming from standby".
7) It loads faster than if you loaded it manually, but NOT by much. And the hard drive SWAPS forever ...it's actually faster just to power off the board and power back on, due to the swapping.

All Gigabyte did is make the board repost as if it was powered off (it actually does power off), to reinitialize the register which controls CPU PLL overvoltage.

It's not a fix at all.

If you want a real fix, contact Intel.
