Ok you guys are half right and half wrong. I just called AMD and they said that since the first number in the XXX/XXX is the cpu frequency (i told them) then I should set THAT to 133. He also said that since the second number is dram frequency, i should set that number to: 100 if i have ddr200...

so 133/133mhz will set my processor to the 1.4 ghz or whatever its supposed to be, and it wont black out? because if it does, im kinda dead. ps: why did my other comp give me that error with the other hard drive? pps: so the blacking out has nothing to do with the mainboard and 133/133 will...

er... what are you trying to say with the 11* and the 1466/133? all i need is a reassurance that my comp wont black out if i set the speed to 133/133 mhz.

im afraid to try 133/133mhz because if my comp blacks out again, i have nothing to use. are you absolutely sure? and why did my comp black out in the first place?

i cant use my 1800 because like i said, the computer doesnt do anything. all i hear is the humming of the fan...i see the blank monitor...

Ok this post is gonna be like, hella long. Last night I was foolish enough to go strait to BIOS without consulting you guys first with my mainboard model. I went to the CPU PnP Setup and under CPU Speed it said: 100/100MHz. I didn't know what that had to do with the FSB, but being foolish, I...

I'm about to get a VisionTek Xtasy 9100 128MB AGP card, but i can't find any benchmarks on the internet. If anyone knows them or knows where to get them, that would be a big help. Thanks!

geez, leeper ur really mean. i said i was sorry for yelling. ill go with what shady said.

thanks! im not going to be at my computer at home for about an hour but when i do ill give you my system info. so when im changing the thing in bios i just go to some type of cpu setting option and tune the fsb to as high as it will go. and also, will i need a new heatsink or fan or anything...

well, its kind of a long story, but i dont know jack about my computer because i never had a chance to look at it--its custom built, and again, a long story so i dont know the maker and no one does. so if there is a way in windows where you can find out the mainboard then thats great. i'll try...

Ok, so it's not as urgent as I say, but since I'm not getting any more replies on my other topic, I thought that I might as well start a new one. ANYWAYS, here is what I need to know: Since the other people said that if I upped my fsb on my Athlon XP 1800+ it would run normally (unlike the...

how do i switch the fsb? forgive me--dont hate me.

you see, SOME of you are being helpful... Please dont hate me anymore than you already do.

not to be mean or anything, but FOR GODS SAKE IM NOT GOOD WITH COMPUTERS AND I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT OVERCLOCKING IS!!!! and how the hell do you change whatever the hell an fsb is to 133mhz? HELL HELL HELL HELLP ME IN A LESS TECHNICAL WAY IF POSSIBLE LIKE BY TELLING ME WHERE TO GO TO CHANGE...

im not at my comp now and im not in the vicinity of my comp now and i havent memorized every spec. of every componet of my comp and etc. anyway, i dont think that the same unstability would happen to two processors especially when one worked fine on a weaker comp.
