    That just isn't accurate. nVidia came out with a new revision of the chipset to support the 200MHz FSB because previous revisions weren't always stable at that speed.

    Really? (in Beavis voice) oh, ok, sorry about that- but wait! Why are other manufacturers releasing bios updates for their nforce2 mobos that support the 200 fsb?

    You will need a BIOS update to properly recognize the chip and display it properly during bootup. However, a BIOS update cannot address limitations of the earlier chip revisions which may not properly support stable operation at a 200MHz FSB. Asus, Epox, Soltek, and Abit have different revisions with the proper version of the chip, now being called the nForce2 400 (Ultra).
