I appreciate the input. These symptoms had a suspicious feeling to them... suspicious in a way that suggested that the problem(s) wouldn't be fixable. Rather than wasting more time, I restored from the on-disk image, gutted McAfee and Dell's security apps completely, then proceeded to install...
The short: Windows 7 Pro... Internet Explorer 11 failed to install correctly via Windows Update. Now, in the Enable/Disable features portion of "Programs and Features", IE 11 is listed as a feature (I have enabled/disabled to no avail). Windows is also wanting to install IE 11 via Windows...

@ Deleted member 4644: That sounds okay to me, with an H80. Have you checked the heatsink surface on it? Both of my Corsair water coolers desperately needed to be lapped, and their performance improved considerably once it was done.. Just pointing that out in case you think lower temperatures...
It does 4.3 in the low 1.3V region, but I haven't yet summoned the bravery to run it like that 24/7.. wishing I had another multiplier step to play with, since I think high bus speeds are holding it back from its potential. :)
@ FaaR: Those are some impressive RAM timings. I haven't even...
For those of you who aren't totally bored by older tech..
I knew that this chip had more in it, despite its sensitivity to high bus speeds..
This original Corsair H70 is no slouch, either. The ambient temperature for this run was 26 degrees C. I don't think they attracted a lot of...
I reinstalled Windows 7, and now the 21x multiplier is working correctly. It's a relief that it's working, and incredibly frustrating to need to do a complete reinstall of a lot of software. I'd still very much like to know what was causing it....
@ FaaR: It's probably not worth trying to...
I used to have the load throttling issue with my ASRock board, so I just used 20x. Right now I'm using a bios that prevents throttling on the Asus board (In other words, 21x will stick once I can get it to work right in W7).
@ tarmc: This is a D0, and yes, it will run at 20x200 without any trouble. The 21x multiplier does work.. It's just not working in my (admittedly somewhat aged) Windows 7 installation.
@ Ajay: The screenshots are taken during the second or third work unit of an IntelBurn run. The...
I just installed Vista to double check.. It is indeed my Windows 7 installation that's causing the problem. Any suggestions on where to dig? I'd really like to avoid performing a new installation..
Windows 7:

Edit: If i go to Power Options and select a different plan (during...
@ Ajay: It's V2 of the board. It's a fine board, but this issue still has me puzzled. I'm going to do a quick xp installation on a different hard drive, just to test it.. unless this is resolved by the time I get around to it. :)
@ BTRY B 529th FA BN: The 21x multiplier lock is good for...
