Motherboard FSB - Newbie Question
I just installed a Biostar M7NCG, with a Athlon XP 2400 , with 512 MB DDR
RAM 3200. My question is regarding the Motherboard FSB Frequency. The BIOS has a choice of 100, 133 or 266. If I pick 266, the motherboard won't boot and I have to reset the BIOS. The motherboard only boots on FSB Frequency of 100 or 133. My manual says it "supports Socket-A AMD Processors FSB 200/266/333 M transfer per second". Can Anyone explain this please? http://www.biostar.com.tw/products/m...dex.php3?name= M7NCG PROCESSOR a.. Socket A b.. AMD AthlonT XP , AthlonT and DuronT Processor c.. 200 / 266 / 333MHz system interface speed Thank you, mac |

CORRECTION: My error,
The BIOS doesn't say 266; it says 166!!! That's why it won't boot if I set it to 166! Is this true? Thanks again, mac I think I understand now.... "mac" wrote in message y.com...
