Erm, have you set the FSB right? Only 10*100=1000 and 10*133=1330 which would kinda explain the issue, if your CPU is meant to be run at 133MHz...

It's a common problem. The default jumper setting on the mobo is for a 100 mhz fsb. You can switch the jumper (which is really easy to do) or you can just set the fsb to 133 manually in the bios. That should solve the problem.

I had the same problem! But... the jumper switch worked!

yeah, just move the jumper switch. i think it was jumper1. there are 3 pins lined up vertically. when the jumper is on the bottom 2, the fsb is at 100mhz. if you move it up to the 2nd and 3rd pins, the fsb moves to 133mhz.

Yes, factory default for the epox 8k7a boards are set to 100 mhz fsb.
