Jet VIP Member Mar 16, 2007 #2 It might have defaulted to lower multipliers. The ASUS P5B series has multiplier adjustment unlocked (downwards).

Jet VIP Member Mar 16, 2007 #4 Isn't it fixed now? Just make sure that the FSB is set to 266 in the BIOS, and the Multiplier is set to 9 (unless you want to overclock).
