Some buddies and I ran into similar problems to this a while back. (with sharing not ICS, we weren't using ICS at that time) Try disabling the windows firewall, seemed to fix our sharing problem although you may not want to open your computer up to the internet like that, its all up to you...

Look and see if there is an option to turn faster boot time off or something like that, or try turning on memory testing if there is an option. The extra time testing the memory should allow it to detect everything.

Please check and bear in mind that if you originally have a duron in that mobo, and want to use that same mobo. It probably only supports a 200MHZ fsb and thus wouldn't work at full speed with a 266 fsb athlon. Of course you could get the proc now and upgrade the mobo later. THe athlon would be...

Sorry Cherub, i'm not exactly an expert, but I believe the the fsb is different on the c class proc (it can operate at 133 or 100 fsb). (i've a couple of both systems) and typically the multiplier is lower but with a higher (133 fsb). Check it... (b) 100 * 12 = 1200 mhz (c) 133 * 9 =...

WOW, i thought i knew a little bit about stuff till i got here. I haved learned so much in the past couple of days, this is great! thanks guys (or girls)

Thanks so much for your input, but has anybody actually tried this? Has anybody actually used a 266fsb processor with the KT133 chipset or any chipset with a default 100fsb. If you have, what speed did you run it at? I'm debating on what to do with my tax return upgrade my 800mhz to an xp...

Does anybody know if an athlon xp or any athlon with a 133ddr(266) bus work with my KT133 (100fsb) motherboard? Its an MSI pro-2a specifically. I have the latest bios which the web site descibes as athlon xp ready. Will it work at full speed??? It does have fsb adustments in 1mhz increments up...
