Underclocking PC133 to PC100?

Hi all guys, at first this my scenario, I currentely have an TBird 800, and just change my old PC100 to a new PC133 RAM same brand APACER (192 MB), so this the deal, before the upgrade to PC133 I can OverClock my system to 880 (110 * 8), 'cause my mobo (Aopen's MK33) don't have any cpu voltage option, so now with the new RAM I cannot go beyond the 800MHz, only if I underclock the RAM to 100MHz, if not I have a Windows 2K error at the startup (some says that cannot found the kernel32.dll file and anothers just shows the blue screen).

SO I think is could be an HD latency or something.

What U think? any suggestions?.

System Specs:
AMD TBird 800 MHz CPU
APACER PC133 192MB (1 stick 128 and 1 stick 64)
Fujitsu 5200RPM UDMA66 (activated) 20 GB HD, and Internal 100MB Zip drive (both in IDE1)
Creative Infra52 52X CDRom and AOpen CDRW9420 burner (both in IDE2)
Creative SBLive Value sond card.
Affrey 56Kbps internal Modem.
AOpen PA3000+ Video Card
NEC generic floppy drive 1.44.
AOpen HQ45 case.




 
800 mhz at 133 sdram mhz is much faster than 880 @ 100, the shear performance gain from the 33mhz in ram clock is worth it!

i found my box ran faster at 112x8 (+33) than 100x9.5 (+33)...
