Is your memory not fully recognized? (Intel VX chipset Memory recognition)

In short, i need to set Read Preamble timing manually in bios setup (or even flash fixed value).

The whole story, u may skip it. Damn mobo sets RP to useless 9 ms, my memory (ddr400 of course) cant go past 135 (270ddr) frequency with such crazy setting :evil: (common working values are about 4 to 6 ms) This only happens at higher FSB's, at 200MHz Read Preamble is ok, but hell! who needs mere 200 FSB. My cpu and mobo worked at 300x9 fine (with another memory). But now i cant boot at 300MHz, and the only obstacle is this timing.

Original BIOS => click.

Thanks in advance.
And sorry if i posted in wrong forum.

Have you complained with Asus yet? They are the maker of this board and should include this option in their bios.

Well i've filled the support request form, but i really doubt this will result in new bios version :-\ Bet they reply (IF they do) like "overclocking is not guaranteed, clear cmos and be happy"...
Even cheap-ass MSI boards have nearly full set of timings, but this "n1 n' shit" ASUS doesnt even bother to keep up.
