just refuses to operate with a 200FSB. 
upped the voltage to 1.85 (max on this mobo) and still no go. i did clean the northbridge and the cpu with stuff from overclockers. put those shin-etsu thermal pads on nice clean surfaces (nthbridge and cpu). best at the mo is 11 x 180. gutted TBH. ahhh well i will save me pennies for a 3.2 when it drops in price.
cheers
