er, I think you can run a divider to get the ram to run at 200MHz and the board to run at 190 or whatever works for you.
I had a board with "built-in dividers" which means that the divider set differently when I set a different fsb; I believe 199 fsb would be the next step up for you to get you in spec with your pci/agp settings if that's the case. I'd try bumping the vcore at the same time one small notch up so you know it's not a problem; if it runs windows and benches ok there, you can try lowering it if you think you have to.
KT400 boards are so stable but such a headache to o/clock!

Is that a nforce board? Because if its not you don't want to up the FSB.
