Anyone else out there with this issue?

I have an A7A266 rev 1.04, BIOS 1007, with a 1.2 Athlon "C". Now, my issue is this: my CPU is running at 1240MHz, or so, and when I check SiSoft Sandra, it tells me my FSB is running at 138MHz (276MHz DDR), even though I have this motherboard set to 133/33 in the BIOS. I've tried ever other BIOS manipulation that would change the FSB to default, to no avail. After unsuccefully asking Asus about this (some people are defective, so lets stick them in customer support), I've figured I'd ask the intelligent people in the world. BTW, this was also an issue with BIOSes 1004 and 1006. Any ideas?

Asus is well known (especially for that board), for increasing the FSB to win benchmarks. As long as you're stable, I wouldn't worry about it. Just think of it as free overclocking.
