Flick on switch 6 on DIP switch 1 (DSW1) . And your mem settings 1:1 will be at 3:4 and 4:3 will be 1:1 for fsb`s higher than 132. Make sure to set your mobo on jumper free (default setting).

Your sig shows you're OCing to 145FSB. Are you running it at this speed when you try the dipswitch trick? If so, you're running your RAM at 193FSB with the dipswitch trick which is way too fast and that's probably why you can't boot. Set your FSB back to 133Mhz before you try the dipswitch trick.

At 133 FSB with the dipswitch trick you'll be running your RAM at 177FSB (DDR354) which may still be too fast for your DDR333 RAM anyway, especially if it's some "no-name" brand RAM.

Well, like I said in my prior post:

"At 133 FSB with the dipswitch trick you'll be running your RAM at 177FSB (DDR354) which may still be too fast for your DDR333 RAM anyway, especially if it's some "no-name" brand RAM."

What brand is your RAM? Is it capable of running at 177FSB? Remember, "DDR333" equals 166FSB and your RAM may not run faster than that. Does it boot up fine without the DSW6 trick (i.e., with the RAM running at default speed)?

found a large thread on the dip switch mod, and ordered my corsair PC 3200 RAM to prepare.
