It's driving me nuts, here's what's happening

I've had 3.2ghz (w/400 fsb) stable for months now, 2 days ago the CPU dropped back to 266mhz (ie. stock fsb)

I enter the BIOS change it back, reboot it, it doesn't fault at all, just boots one time with fsb control disabled everytime

I've dropped the ram back to stock, tried various fsb speeds, just updated the BIOS to F11

nothing works, please help

if you raise fsb and lower the multiplier to match ram speed is it still considered overclocking

May have a bad CMOS battery... Probably not, but just throwin' that out there.
