MSI K7T Pro Turbo FSB is it important?

[PuFF]

Just a question that I hope you good people can answer. I am building a system for a friend with the afore mentioned Motherboard and it has 266 MHZ FSB. Here is the question is it possible to use a CPU rated at 200 MHZ FSB on this board without any headaches? Thanks in advance for your replies.

I'm pretty sure everything'll work fine.

Just make sure that any jumpers and BIOS settings all say 200Mhz. If you pop in a 200 chip and all is set for 266, it may be too much of an overclock and you may not post. So save yourself that headache from the start!

Thanks for all the replies. I am looking at a 900 MHZ duron. I will make sure of those settings in Bios.

Any board that can run a 266 Athlon can run a 200 Athlon/Duron... Yeah it'll work fine...

No probs. Just set the FSB jumper from 133 to 100.
