In your BIOS, you should be able to force your speed to be in sync with your FSB. Or manually set it to 200MHz. Set your FSB to 200MHz too.
You can also change your CPU voltage to 1.7 or 1.75. Don't go over 1.8 Volt if you don't have a good cooling solution. You should keep your CPU temperature under 60 Celsius to insure 100% stability.

The abit motherboards often undervolt vcore (voltage to cpu). D/L and run motherboard monitor 5 (a free program) to confirm your voltages and temperatures. You may need to increase your vcore to get the cpu to run stably at higher FSB speeds.
Put your ram and cpu in synch. After raising the FSB, run memtest86 (another free program for d/l) to test that your ram is stable. I think you'll most likely find that your ram is OK. It's more likely your cpu is having trouble with the FSB without additional vcore (again, an Abit motherboard usually undervolts).
