I got much help from other people in here last week to enable 266fsb with my system. I already unlocked the L1 bridges and someone told me to set the L7 bridges to 1.85 and reinstall a fresh bios. IT worked I was so happy to see it turn on with 266fsb enabled. So then my system was running duron 800@1066mhz with a temp at 50c. But in my bios I set the vcore voltage at 1.85 also and my pc alert utility says its at 1.99v. this kind of scared me. I ran some sandra tests and it displayed everything fine. heres the trickypart.. I started quake 3 and in the middle of the game at random times it would freeze and then send me to my desktop screen sometimes in q3 resolution with the backround color a bright white tial. Then when I would try to restart sometimes it would show a blue screen right before it would load windows saying I dont have ACPI power saving feature availible and I need to update the bios.(I have the newest version availible) I tried changing the cas timing on the ram, no help. and tried different levels of vcore to the cpu and the voltage vio. I though it would be because of a bad stick of ram so I tried both of them in seperatly and no help there either. Im not sure how to make the 266FSB on my cpu stable but right now I put the jumper back in and am running stable but the pc alert still says vcore voltage @ 1.99v which is scaring me a little. Someone please help me because I would love to get this thing running stable @ 266 bus
P.S. I have two sticks of of ram that are pc133 256mb each I have no idea what brand they were both bought less than 3 monthes ago. They say SpecTek on them?
