The Setup defaulted to 166 MHz and "800 MHz" total speed (4.25 multiplier? Never hear of that one). When I tried 266 and 13.5 for an XP-M 2400 (which doesn't seem to compute to the 1800 figure, does it?), it was locked up, obviously, when I slowed down my next time through, since I could see dependent speeds changing.
I did move the CMOS jumper and get it going ("breadboarded" outside of a case, the way that DFI makes convenient with the two small power & reset microswitches), and I believe it'll be fine now, but I asked this next originally, and still wonder about it.
Isn't there a key on the keyboard I press and hold during bootup to skip the existing BIOS settings without wiping them out? That way I only correct the error, which I assume is either to use a 6.25 multiplier with 266 MHz or use the 133 with 13.5 (the latter). I know that I've used a key like that before, but when I tried that key just now, it didn't seem to cooperate.
Maybe it was a feature exclusive to an Asus or Epox BIOS. Those are the other two BIOS Setups I've done more recent work with.
