Hello
I just got my BG7 and I was suprised that the 3:4 ratio doesn't seem to work with the FSB over 133. A couple people on the [H]ard Forum also mentioned they had the same problem.
I've tried from 133-140 and don't even POST with the CPU/Dram ratio at 3:4. However, with the ratio at 4:5 I can go up to 145FSB...with default voltage on my P4 1.6a
Someone mentioned this may have something to do with the board not wanting to boot over 133FSB with the "DRAM H/W Strap" set to LOW, which is the only option for the 3:4 ratio.
Sounds like something that could be fixed in a Bios update. I guess I'll just hold my breath until Abit gives us a new Bios.
