i was messng around with jumper free setting with 1005a. i noticed that there are extra fsb setting available(104,106,108 etc.). i was wondering if anyone has found out if there are corresponding dip switch settings for these? jumper free mode is just to unstable on my a7v. i may mess around with the switches and see what i can find. i just thought i'd ask.

There are no jumper settings for them, that's the benefit of using the BIOS settings. Unfortunately, in Jumper Free mode, the BIOS automatically sets your System Performance to "NORMAL" whenever you set the FSB higher than 103. This pretty much makes using a higher setting useless, because with Performance set to Normal your system will run slower even at a higher clock speed than with the Optimal setting selected.
