I havent unlocked my chip yet but i plan on it. Until then, what FSB would my XP1800+ go up to on a XP333-r? What type of voltages should I run for the chip and RAM (PC2100) ? Thanks in advance for any replies.

What would be a goog voltage and FSB?

That's pretty hard to say..
My guess is 145-150mhz fsb.. with twinmos or better maybe 160
Push the fsb up slowly when instability shows you may increase the Vcore/memV
keep an eye on the temprature.

What do you think would be a good HSF to put on it? Right now the stock one is on it and I have heard nothing but complaints about these.
I have made a water block (dual stage spiral) and have rads and everything else I just need a pump and I am all set. But until then I am looking for a better air cooling solution.
I read on the forums on how to jump the L1 bridges with a pencil and or conductive paint. I have also heard that some of the chips can be a pain to do this (with gaps or something b/t the points). Do you have any tips? Will the temp of the CPU rise regardless of weather the Vcore is raised? Thanks for the reply in advance again if you get the time.

with the 1800+ xp chip you have there will be pits/gaps between the L1 bridges, some
i unlocked only one before, filled in the gaps with clear nail polish, then used rear window defogger repair kit conductive liquid to bridge the L1's together.
look around net / cpu section for more info and tips before you try this.
try setting you ram fsb to 166 and relax all the timings for the memory in bios (i.e. all memory enhancing stuff off, normal timing, CAS3, etc...) and put divider at 1/5. see if it boots and runs there. you can always try enabling the memory enhancements after that.
increasing vdimm voltage may help
increasing the overclock on the cpu will slightly increase temps. if you increase the vcore however, that will increase temps much more.

Ha. I've been running a XP333 since April @ 196.8 host clock and 2 WD 400"bb" hard drives without corruption. It's really the chipset that can hold you back since the XP333's auto-divider function keeps you reasonably close to the 33 mhz PCI/IDE bus specification.

Oh, hard drive data corruption is a still photograph of corruption occuring , it's a permanant record of instability when you try to exceed the cpu/memory bus's speed limit.

The clock frequency divided result has nothing to do with the corruption unless you intentionally run cpu /4 divider @ 166 host clock. Chances are the glitches are ocurring along the cpu/memory bus. Thats why I test for the maximum stable speed of the cpu and then memory before combining.
Running memory and cpu out of sync also encourages corrupt data and higher latency.

if you are referring to the vmem then there's a jumper on the board.
find it in the manual.
when looking at the board i think connecting both left jumpers gets you normal (2.5v?), then moving the top jumper or the bottom jumper to the right side gets you more (2.6 and 2.7V i think?) and putting both to the right gets 2.8v i think. the 2.8 setting not documented in the manual i think though
