E6850 SpeedStep not going to 9x

I suspect that my E6850 is not working right...

Idling in windows, CPU-Z shows what I expect:

333 bus at 6x = 2,000Mhz

But I've tried running a game to put the CPU into proper speed, but this is all I get:

Thoughts?
 
For some reason by BIOS had set itself to limit the CPU to 8x, no idea why, but it was very easy to change (and yes, the range is 6-9).

Now I've set it to 9x, all is working as it should be. 6x in Windows, ramps up to 9x when loaded.

Thanks for the help guys.
