I have to set the FSB jumpers to 133mhz. The only options in jumper mode is 100, 110, 125, and 133mhz. So, I have the FSB set to 133mhz. The system runs great but I cannot OCed at all. Any ideas out there?
 
You need the latest bios for the system to fully support the 1.4 in jumper free mode. 1004a Link After flashing you will need to go back to "auto" jumper settings for jumper free operation. (JEN set to pin 2-3, VID1-4 set to pin 3-4)
 
How about a little more detail? What have you tried? Your only option on this board is to increase the FSB in the BIOS. Your title said "will not run in Jumper Free mode". Is that in fact true? Did you set the jumper listed on the bottom of page 19 in your manual to "Jumper Free Mode" along with the one listed on page 24 to "Jumper free/Default"? Have you checked your voltages and other jumpers just to confirm.
If all is OK, then you should be able to go into the "Advanced" area of you BIOS (what version are you running??) and set the operating frequency to "user defined" and then go to the next line or two (escapes me now) and increase by 1 MHz increments to a desired level. What that level is depends on your configuration and CPU. This is listed on Page 60-62 of your manual. You should be running BIOS version 1004A for your CPU.
