HT trouble

[drown]

I've been building a computer from scratch and it was going okay until the motherboard northbridge burned out, the company fixed it under warrenty. But now I'm having all types of problems, including needing to re formate the hard drive. That I can fix. What I can't fix and have no idea how to fix is that my 3200+ has it's HT multiply at five insted of ten. In the bios I can choose HT multiplyer 1X through 5X and also auto. Auto used to be 10X, now it's 5X. I did clear the bios and it still didn't fix. Any suggustions? I have duel channle PC4000 2gig memory. Aspire power supply. Biostar motherboard, raptor 80Gig Hard Drive, and 6600GT power supply.

Accidently posted this in the OC AMD thread so I copied it to here.

Actually X5 is correct, 200MHz (CPU) X 5 (HTT) = 1000MHZ.
You are probably thinking 2000MHz based on reading the specs for the HTT buss speed. In fact 2000MHz is a marketing ploy (of sorts). The HTT buss is really is 1000MHz with something called "double pumping" (essentially 1000 X 2), but the buss is in fact 1000MHz.

Interesting, but I still have a question, the system ran slower (for the brief time the hard drive was working) and warpspeeded reconized the CPU as 1 gigahertz, when it used to reconize it as 2 gigahertz. Do I need to reset the times two thing?
