Well, what kind of mobo do you have? Do you know if your CPU has a default FSB of 100 or 133MHz. I think this may be the problem, your jumperfree decides your FSB is supposed to be 100MHz (100x4.5=450MHz), however, your auto mode thinks it's supposed to be a 133MHz FSB (133x4.5=600MHz). Is it stable at 600MHz???

P3B-F is a bx chipset and only supports upto 100... although it does go to 150 fsb. Shouldn't be anything wrong... I was using an 800eb in a slotket and it defaulted to 600... the 800 had a 133 fsb and it detected it at 100 fsb ;)
Are you able to choose manual and set different speeds?

Multiplier has been locked on intel chips since the P2... I hate that:mad: Oh well... a high FSB is good enough for me :D
