If you ran 200 FSB at a 5 Multiplier (max on your board), your PCI bus is 40 and your AGP is 80 (from 33/66 stock). Things will go wonky at these speeds if your hardware can't handle it. What you are looking at is the FSB/Mem Spd setting, so that you can, for instance, run your bus at 166 and your memory at (166*5)/3 = 276. Or, if you ran a 133 FSB, then (133*5)/3 = 221.

hrm. maybe i'm not following. i thought perhaps the 2:1 ratio of the agp spd vs. pci speed could possibly be causing the trouble. lol, i guess that really doesn't make sense anyways.

i haven't touched the memory speeds or fsb at all... only the multiplier, so i'm running at 133 fsb.

although on the bright side, it seems to be running reasonably stable now with the side cover off at 18x133, around 41 dec C... (doesn't fix the pause tho, lol).
