Have you manually set the BIOS to a FSB of 133/133?

Many motherboards STILL have a jumper on the board that selects 133MHz FSB. Look for a jumper if the BIOS is indeed set for 133MHz FSB already Amber.

Yes, definitely check the jumper on the motherboard. Try both 100FSB and 133FSB jumper settings since the motherboard manual sometimes describes the setting in a reverse (opposite) order. The manual that came with my old KT133A board incorrectly descibed the jumper setting, and I had to look at the motherboard very closely with a flashlight to determine the correct setting.

as they said, set to 133 in bios
if it wont work still, look for a jumper on board (or in manual) and change that around

....damn mobo manufacturers lol...i see no point in the 100fsb all the freaking time jumper haha
