i just finished putting together an A-bit NF-7 system. the thing runs great at stock settings....133 FSB 11x multi. problem is, the thing will not boot if i change the FSB in the slightest. it gives me a long post beep then repeats. have to use the INSERT key to get back in to change it back. im using a 1700xp DLT3C proc. anyone have any ideas on how i can get the thing to change FSB and actually boot up?

What type of memory do you have? Also its a god idea to lower multiplier when you overclock and than when you reach optmal FSB you raise mult to highest it can go.

Your memory should be good to a certain extent. I believe pc2700 runs at 166 mhz so you shoudl be fine up to there. Try lowering the multi.

I had the same problem. Couldnt get the FSB past 168 without having to jump the BIOS to clear it. I had PC2700, also. I found that I could raise the FSB to around 200 when I started messing with the memory timings.
5-3-3-2 were the ones I used to raise the FSB

Make sure vddm is @ 2.9 ram timing 2.5 3 3 11 or 2.5 4 4 11, also make sure vdd is 1.6 or 1.7 you may also need to change the vcore up alittle. Make sure to disable fsb and agp spectrum, cpu throling agp fast write's. and see if you can boot @ 166x11.
