Not sure if this is the right forum, but I'll try here first. I am ordering stuff for a new sytem build. I'm getting an Epox EP-9NPA+sli. The board with the original bios only supports up to pc 3200, but there is a flash to let support pc4000. I want to order PC 4000 memory. My question is...will the board boot with the PC4000 at least long enough so I can flash it to support the PC4000?? Thanks in advance, and sorry if this is a dumb question, but I've been out of the OC loop for quite some time. Last thing I OC'd was a celeron 300....LOL

The pc4000 will run at pc3200 without any flashes or anything. Actually you don't need any flashes for the memory at all. The pc4000 is backwards compatible down to pc2100. The only difference is that it is guaranteed for 250MHz.
