first of all, you're goign to need better ram...

if it's a 2500+ barton, then the processor runs on a 166 mhz bus and pc2100 = 133

unless you can overclock that ram then i'd upgrade your ram ... and possibly your baord as well...

dunno what sort of o/c-ing options come with the ECS board

Your board has no overclocking options in the bios. All you can do is be sure your jumper is set at 166 fsb and 133 in the bios for your ddram.

the box of the mobo said it has overclocking capabilties... hmm i'll go look this up in a mobo forum.

thanks guys
