To answer a couple of the questions: My friend ran the processor at 2.0 GHz, however when he told me he tried different things, he had crashes all the time at first. Currently, I personally have not adjusted the clock speed on the processor, I simply selected "load optimized defaults" and the processor is running now at 2.1 GHz.
Yes, My PC is running with SP2. I didn't hear anythign about compatibility issues for SP2 yet. In fact, I never ran the system WITHOUT SP2, I always went straight to Windows Update and downloaded all my updates again before playing.
I just checked the voltages and everything is fine... it was 1.63. Temperatures were all within spec too. Thanks for the advice on flashing the BIOS... I'm also going to load up the "fail-safe" defaults and see how stable my system is.
