What kind of motherboard do you have?
EDIT: Found it in your account infos. Which version is it? there are three different.
EDIT2: Here is the manual for the version GA-K8NF-9-RH. I presume the BIOS versions are rather similar.
EDIT3: I Checked the BIOS setting and the complete manual, not a word about Cool'n'Quiet. This is crazy.
Have you tried to disable all unneccessary devices? Today this could be Floppy controller, LAN Boot ROM (is your onboard LAN working?), Parallel Port, Modem Port, Gameport, MIDI Port. If you use a PS/2 mouse and keyboard, I would set all three Legacy USB options to 'disabled'. In the 'MB Intelligent Tewaker' settings must be an option 'CPU Spread Spectrum', disable it.
