Please help:
This is my first shot at this. Athlon 650 w/Northwind GFD
K7pro(MSI) mb

I tried to set the mult. to 8.5, but could not get AutoCAD to run properly. So, I got it to work at 8x w/ 102 FSB. For some reason, increasing the FSB further prevents booting into the o/s. I did set L2 to 2/5...
How do I 1) allow higher mult. settings 2) get higher FSB?
Please note, I set the CPU fans to operate continuously and the temp never exceeds 40C.
By the way, before installing the GFD, I was able to set the FSB as high as 112 with no problems.
Any advice would great!

What is wrong with 820Mhz. That may be it for your chip.
