Overclocking problem on eP35-DS4

I haven't spent a whole lot of time tuning and tweaking, simply because nothing ever sticks. I can set the FSB to 400 (and did 445 last night, WoW kept crashing then though). My issue though, is the system seems just fine after I enter BIOS, overclock, and boot up. When I start it up the next day, the machine doesn't POST and restarts with no overclock. I normally I just go back to BIOS and flip the switch again to set it back to 400 FSB and everything is fine.

Could a BIOS update fix this? I looked up the various updates for my board and nothing seemed to specify this problem. Not to mention the only bits of "review" I came across were negative.

Any way to fix this, or do I just need to tough it out until I get a new board?

I forgot to mention - I upgraded to the F3 BIOS, which was the newest one at the time, to ensure the board would work with my 45nm CPU

On my GA-P35-DS3R v1.0, when I'm cold booting, it does the double-post thing and disables my overclock. I always have to go back into BIOS and re-set the FSB, and then warm-boot into Windows XP.

Yea. That's what I've got to do as well. I'm not sure if I have v1.0 or v2.x tho. The site only seems to list the 2.1.
