Hi,

An XP2700+ should give you access to the lower multipliers, assuming your bios unlocks tbredbs

Cheers,

Alex

I can play with the FSB - but any reduction in the multiplier causes the PC to hang. Am i really stuck or am i missing something?

Some MOBO's dont fully support all of the multiplier options. Try 10 X 200, then 10.5, then 11 etc. Its only really worth mucking about with the multipliers if your going for a 200 fsb.

If you cannot get these then your MOBO does not support the fifth bit and you will need to try the wire trick.

edited to say that this is a good webbie to have a gander at.
