I've got this system:
ASUS A7V133 (motherboard)
ASUS V7700 (geforce 2 GTS)
512 MB PC133 RAM (PQI)
Maxtor 20,4 Gb HD (ATA100)
ASUS 50x cd-drive
sony 4/2/24-CDRW burner
Creative Soundblaster live value (1024)
AMD TB 1,2 GHz
Taisol, made for 1,2 GHz CPU's (cooler)

Well i can't run it at 133fsb, it says beep, and then freezes. I've tested the motherboard and the cpu, they run fine (with other stuff in it). So which parts can cause this ?
And sometimes it gives a lot of beeps, but continue to run... what can this be ?
I've just tried to run fsb at 100, and the RAM at 133, then it did all those beeps...

Please help me, i've used soo many money on this, it should work!!

Did you try lowering the multipler to 9, instead of the usually 12?

If you try running at 12x133 it most likely won't boot up, lowering it to 9x1133 = ~1200

Try that and see if you can boot up using that.

Yeah...a lower multiplier tends to achieve higher FSB. Higher FSB tends to improve overall system performance.
