Overclock lost on wake from Hibernation

[johnjk]

Hey all,

Looking for some help her. I have an ASUS A8R-MVP motherboard with a x64 4000+ I can get some great overclocks and am stable at 2.9gHz. One problem, I have noticed that when the computer resumes from hibernation the overclock is lost. If I manual overclock it, it either drops to normal or if the HTT is above 250, it reboots at overclock/2. If i reboot the computer once windows starts the overclock is back in place.

Is there a bios setting I need to change?

Is this normal (Iam doubting it)?

What is the power savings from going from S3 (suspend) to S4 (hibernate)?

I've always used hibernation for the supposed power saving benefits. I just tried suspend and it turns out that that doesn't work. Suspend will turn off the computer with the power light blinking like it should, but when you turn it on, it takes about 20 sec to think then resets and fully loads windows as if nothing where in the ram. This even occurs with no overclock.

This has the added benefit of reseting the computer and thus keeping (or rather not lossing) the overclock that occurs with hibernate. However it takes longer to boot.

Any thoughts???

Is this Bios, Motherboard, or Windows XP related???
