Hey guys,
Please look at what I purchased and tell me if I am supposed to have DDR ram to run it at the 266 setting. I am using 256mb of Corsair PC133 Cas 3 ram.
The first thing I did was to flash the bios to KT77N which sets the 1400(133) in the bios so that it will run the 1.4. I haven't tried the newest one, KT7A9. Just saw it while getting the link below. I am assuming that the newer bios has all the previous bios updates included in it. The bios that origonally had the update to the 1.4 is the KT74A.

The most I can set it for in the bios is the setting >1300(100) and it finally defaulted at that after first defaulting at 1050(100) for a couple weeks. I can't get it to do anything at 133 at all. When I try to set it for anything in the 133 settings the monitor light goes from green to the yellow color and it just sits there. I have to unplug the PS for a half minute or so to get it to boot back to the bios. I have set the ram at all the settings: 8/10ns, Fast, Normal, Turbo. I have the AGP set right and everything else too I beleive.
Here is the chip I got.
