I just rebuilt my compter:
MSI KT3 Ultra
Athlon XP 1800+
2 x 256M Crucial PC2100 DDR
Abit Siluro GeForce 4 Ti 4200
IBM Deskstar 80GB HD

The thing runs fine with the FB set to 100Mhz, which makes the chip run at 1150
But, once I put it to 133Mhz, which is what it's supposed to run at, NOTHING will work right. Everything crashes except IE. usually to a blue screen with a KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED message I'm running Win2K SP2.

I have the latest BIOS and drivers for everything, and I've even tried switching out the RAM. Nothing seems to work.

Any ideas?

While I don't want to sound like an A**, I recall having to adjust a few switches in order to program the mobo correctly, so my suggestion would be to read the mobo directions and make sure all the switches are set right.

Do you mean switches on this particular MB (MSI K3 Ultra)? Or MB's in general? I've read through the manual a few times and I didn't see anything regarding jumpers in order to run at 133.
