I have a AZ11e and, unknown to me, i have been running my computer at 100 FSB for almost a year now. So when i change the jumper to 133MHz, the computer stops working. Everything starts uyp(they have power)but nothing comes up on the screen. What may be the problem? I did as much troubleshooting as i could. Please help!

You'll need to provide much more info than you have. What cpu are you using? RAM? Power Supply? HSF? Just a couple of guesses would be that your CPU is either a Duron or an Athlon 200 MHz, not 266 MHz FSB chip. Possibly you have PC100 RAM; not PC133. Anyway, without more info it is hard to guess. Did you build the system?

Duron=200 MHz FSB (aka 100 MHz); not 266 MHz (aka 133 MHz). That is why you couldn't boot. Your settings were correct from before. You're probably pushing the limits of that PS also.

<< Why do you multiply the FSB speed by 2? >>

I don't. AMD and your chipset do. Just remember that 200 is 100 and 266 is 133. Duron=200 (100). Others can give you a more technical explanation. Where's Peter when you need him??
