Just download the 2.66 V3, initial impressions are very good!

threres pages on bios settings in this glossy guide

all the same except
cpu multiplier 16 or 1.6 ghz
ram to 800mhz
disable onboard audio and ethernet

if your feeling comfortable lower ram voltage to 1.25volts
set ram timings to 6 6 6 11 courtesy of JC

what ram do you have ?

Also note that multiple linear or battery supplies are of huge benefit over std atx

not heard of that before, assume you have enough memory. maybe something on your pc interrupting it ?

please don't believe everything the audiophile_optimize pdf said. especially the bios part. for example, "Enable HPET" will damage SQ. "Select IDE as SATA mode" is wrong.

you use 1.25v for ram at 6-6-6-11 800 Mhz? interesting. i have same ram setting. i find factory default 1.5v or 1.495v the best volt for SQ.

2.66 sse4 intel v3 removes an instruction that isn't needed for the amount of data being transferred as it's all in cache anyway. Sounds a lot more civilised.

Just plugged a JK Ciunas spdif convertor in for the first time, now I can see why you guys are so excited about MQn - I immediately heard detail which I hadn't heard before and the bass is lovely and warm, so a big step up from the MF V link 192, although without the vlink maybe I wouldn't have strived so hard to remove the digital sound. Supposed to take 48 hours to burn in, so all good. Thanks JK, shall have the 24 bit by the weekend. The 2.66 v3 version is a big help with the 24 bit as well because it can be converted to 24 bit more easily.
