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
