Having some BSOD issues with an ECS K7S5A Pro (Rev 5.0), running a 1700+ @ 133x11 = 1467mhz.

However, the problem *seems* to go away when i run the memory @ 100, at 1100mhz.

Any advice on how to get it stable at the speed its supposed to run at? I replaced the power supply, checked the hard drive for errors, and also ran memtest through 20 passes (all checked out ok).

In the next few days, I may just jump ship and shell out $50 for an Epox 8rda3I (Nforce2), but I'd like to hear what you might have to say on this issue.

I was thinking to use a different bios, but im not sure. Thanks in advance.
