If so, how? I don't see anything specifying what jumpers (if any) need to be enabled...I have an AMD XP 1800+ and the speed is being reported inaccurately @ 100/133. I want to set the frequency to match the specifications AMD has for this processor..PC CHIPS (yeah, piece of crap, but its for my 6 year old son).

If you know how to fix this small issue, please send me an email HERE

In many cases that's accomplished in the BIOS. If you're not familiar with how to get into the BIOS to alter the settings, I can be more specific. I'll see if I can download a manual for the board.

Here are instructions for getting into the BIOS Setup Utility:

Running the Setup Utility

Each time your computer starts, before the operating system loads, a message appears on the screen that prompts you to ?Hit <DEL> if you want to run SETUP?. When you see this message, press the Delete key and the Main menu page of the Setup Utility appears on your monitor.


Once you're in there, use the arrow keys to highlight CPU PnP Setup and hit Enter. Next, highlight CPU Frequency, and use the Page Up and Page Down keys to change the setting to 133. Then hit Escape to go out to the previous menus until you have the main menu, and choose Save Settings and Exit. That should get the job done.
