Hi to all
Ok, I don't know where to start... Is it possible that an overclocked system (Barton 2600 516ddr333 Asus A7V8X-X) Run at 196 11.5x fsb392 2.25Ghz for something like 3 weeks, passing all the tests, 3D Mark briliant score, Prime 95 run for nearly 20 hours no errors, and all of a sudden, i have to downgrade it bit by bit to 185 11.5x, and still boots up in "safe mode bios" telling me messages of wrong frequency combinations.... What has changed from the past 3 weeks???

That's a pci bus of 39mhz, a bit faster than is reliable for your hard drive. You could have corrupted your registry or device manager or anything else on your hard drive. I'd reset to default speed and do a scandisk and a scanreg /fix.
