Thats strange, my Supermicro p55cm doesnt want to have a clock multiplyer 
of 2.5, it only allows 1.5, 2, 3 and a mystery setting which I think is 
for the Pentium-this-name-is-so-crap-why-didnt-you-call-it-the-p6-pro.
If my supermicro has a setting for 66*2.5, I think ill use that, can 
anyone spread some light on this?
