Well bought that Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2PL ram, and installed it. However i have a really annoying problem. I've set the timings to 2-3-3-6 (disabled configure by SPD) and also set the ram voltage to the 2.75v, just like on the corsair Spec Sheet for this ram. So the ram should by all rights be running at 2-3-3-6 right ? Well for some reason it doesn't appear to be. The mobo bios says the timings are 2-3-3-6 and the voltage is 2.75.... But when i check the timings using cpu-z, it says the timings are 3-3-3-6 !!! What 's going on ? the mobo is saying one thing and cpu-z is saying another. Also im more inclined to believe cpu-z's readings are actually correct and perhaps the bios is wrong, because i did a memtest86+ @ 3-3-3-8 timings when i first installed the ram, then after i changed the timings to 2-3-3-6, i did another memtest86+, and the wall-time did not improve at all, it was the same time, so obviously although the bios is saying the timings are 2-3-3-6, the ram isn't acting like it's at 2-3-3-6, it's acting more like it's still at 3-3-3-6, like cpu-z is reading.
Please how can i fix this ?

I don't want to do something wrong and end up with a broken bios. MSI does also have a program called MIS Live Update, which runs in windows, searches the net for a bios update and then flash's the bios for you. This sounds alot simpler than the floppy method, with im struggling to understand. Tho im not sure about the live update thing either.
What is ment to happen or rather what happens next when you click on "Connect to MSI Live Update Server" ?
