Bios not recognizing memory correctly

[nikko]

I just upgraded from PC2100 to PC2700 Crucial memory. I've got an Albatron PX845PEV Pro845 PE mobo. Anyway, when I boot my computer, my bios says that it's 266 memory. This is the Crucial recommended model for my mobo. What do I need to do to make it recognize it as 333 mhz memory? Is there a setting somewhere in the bios?

Do not know about the P4 boards, but there should be a setting to set the DDR memory by its own speed.

Memory speed is set in your BIOS. You have to set it to the proper setting.

DDR:CPU RATIO in the BIOS under Frequency/Voltage control in advanced BIOS to AUTO or 2.5 if your CPU is 133 FSB or 3.33 if you are using 100FSB CPU you can't set to 333mhz due to the limitation on the chipset
you may decrease the latency in the advanced chipset features to compensate for the lost Mhz

Do you have a p4a or p4b processor? The motherboard has a divider but you need a 133mhz fsb processor to get the setting. Won't show up if you use a 100mhz fsb p4 oc to 133mhz fsb. Will still show the dividers for a 100mhz fsb processor.
