Bios setting for XP2600

[snidy]

What should my settings be for my XP2600? I set the fsb to 166 and it doesn't work. Yes it's a 333. So when I bootup it only recognizes a XP2000

What doesn't work about setting it to 166mhz?

My system freezes. I forgot to say that my ram is differant than my syg, it's ddr2100. Is that the problem

Bingo. Try running ur RAM and your FSB Async. Sett ur FSB to 166 and your ram speed to 80% of it to give you 132.8 mhz, or 133mhz RAM speed.

The jumper when set to 1-2 pins (default), enable support for Front Side Bus 333/266. When set to pins 2-3, it sets support for FSB 200 only. Make sure it's on 333/266.

Set your PC2100 memory so run as fast as it can.
