Running 3200+ XP on Asus A7N8X Deluxe 1.04

I currently have an Asus A7N8X Deluxe 1.04 board with BIOS 1007. According to Asus's site, this board will run 200FSB with the updated BIOS. I heard where this is not true, that the Northbridge did not get enough voltage to reach aboce 185 FSB or so. Is this true? Also, is there a way to increase voltage to the NorthBridge if that is the problem? Anybody successfully run 200FSB with this board.

I run @ 175 fsb - things go buggy above that but don't know if that's my cpu or the mobo.
 
Ok. So my best bet would be to OC my 2400+. I tried a while ago, two different ways. I locked AGP/PCI bus, and got the FSB up to 145. I also tried to change multiplier from 15 to 12, and changed FSB from 133 to 166. It crashed my BIOS, and I had to use a different stick of RAM to get it to post again. I am not sure if this would happen again. Maybe I should try to change multiplier first, if that is successful, then change my FSB. I have a good CPU cooler, so overheating is not an issue. Got Thermaltake Silent Boost and Artic Silver paste. Load temps is only 44C.
