just installed a visiontek geforce 3 ti200, into my athlonxp1800 msi system, and now I cant raise my fsb above 133, any idea what the problem could be? PSU maybe?

When you say "can't", what is happening?

I would assume your bios/softmenu doesn't have the cpu error hold enabled... if it does, that might be one reason...

Is there a video option, like 4x agp, fast read/write, etc enabled that coul dbe halting the bootup and forcing the bios to reset/default (which is what it souds like it's doing...).

i have the agp speed set to auto
any ideas on what other settings i might have to disable?

Set the AGP to 2X, disable sideband addressing and fastwrites... that should give you the minimum agp settings...

You didn't say if u got it higher before!!!
Your PSU could c**p out if its pants as a high power g-card takes more power I doubt it will make any diff this time though.
