The first thing you do...

Nforce 2 BIOS problems confirmed and fixed "Users of a new Shuttle Nforce 2 based machine had reported problems with the BIOS. They had been trying to overclock their machines only to find that, once they went past a certain point, the machine would stop working...Setting the FSB too high can stop Nforce 2 motherboards from POSTing. Once the motherboard has stopped POSTing, the only way to get it going again is to reset the FSB back down to 100MHz. Only most motherboards don't have the jumper so you can't do that." Looks like they have the Intel G2 now too. A review at SFF says that the Intel version has 2 PCI slots instead of an AGP and a PCI slot. There's also an impressive picture of a bank of servers at Los Alamos National Laboratories.
