Can't understand why the pci-x would drop to 1x. Are you using the latest bios?

Raise SB Vcore in bios to 1.5v. This should solve your problem!

I'm sure I read Concorderules post in another thread that the drop in the PCI-E link width is a known bug for that board or is this an issue you always get, even after rebooting for instance?

ive pu the sb volts to 1.6 at 400hz fsb and the pci-e is still working i suspect its a psu and motherboard problem
