133/133/33 ratio is a no go mushkin REV1.5 PC133?

[PwAg]

Hey guys!
Here's the scoop: Just got an Asus CUSL2 and P3 700 today coupled with an Alpha 35t with Delta fan and 2x128mb Mushkin PC133 Rev 1.5. This ram does 145+ mhz easily on another mobo i used to have. So I know its certainly capable.
Now when I set the ratio to 133/133/33, it would not post. Stops at pnp config completed and just sits there. So I go back, switch the ratio to 133/100/33 and manipulate it to 146/108/36 (something in that nature) and it posts, runs rock solid in win98se at 1022mhz. Now how come I can't even get 133/133/33, when I know my ram does well over 140mhz. Am I missing something here? I've just switched back to Intel so I'm only down with AMD jive. Let me know if I can use my PC133 ram to its maximum capability. Thanks in advance.

hmm...i didnt even check...what should it be at? I've just sat down to read the manual to my new CUSL2. I'll be up to par with this mobo in no time. Let me know because the person who sold me this chip ran it at 140/140/36...doesnt make sense if i cant even post 133/133/33 with basically the best mobo and ram available. Thanks

change your timings to 7/9 instead of 5/7.
