I am having a weird problem when im trying to overlcok my cpu. Just a quick run down of what I have:

Asus K8N-E
A64 3200+
PC 3500 OCZ EB Platinum.

The thing is, when I leave the HTT to 4, with a default fsb of 200, the cpu shows up fine as the core speed is 2200 mhz. The problem is, when I try to move the fsb past 200, the cpu core speed shows up as FSB x HTT = core speed. An example is if I try to run the FSB at 216, the core speed of the cpu shows up at 4 x 216 = 864 mhz core speed. It shows this in the motherboard, in cpu-z, and in the windows system properties. I don't really know why it's doing this but I do not want to leave it like this so im leaving it at stock speeds for now. Also, the motherboard is running bios 1005 which is the newest version. Anyone know what it's acting strange like this.?

Do you have Cool'n'Quiet disabled? It lowers the multiplier to 4x.

Yup I have it disabled. As a said, when it is at stock 200 fsb it shows 2200, but anythign higher and it shows 8xx mhz instead of the real number it should be.
