I have a brand new P4P800 non -deluxe mobo and the biod is suuuuuper slow. Everytime I change a setting it has to refresh the whole page and it takes ages to get to 250+mhz on the FSB. What could cause this, I have never experienced something like this. It also came outta a CyberPowerPC so it should be tested and such.

Might be a temperature thing, check them in BIOS. You might want to ensure you have a tight HSF mounting and the fan's spinning to be safe.
