 |
|
I have a K7VTA Pro V1.0 with an Athlon XP 1800+ (Palomino) processor. I
was running it with the CPU FSB at 100MHz (I didn't bother changing it
when I first set it up.)
I recently tried putting the FSB to 133MHz so that the processor could
run at it's fastest speed. However, when I did this, Windows XP refused
to boot, giving me random BSOD STOP errors shortly after the splash
screen displayed. I tried an Ubuntu 5.10 live-cd, but it would never
get past decompressing the Linux kernel, or it would just get kernes
panics.
I flashed the BIOS to version 2AB2, but that made no difference.
Once I set the FSB back to 100MHz, everything would work just fine. |

Could be your memory isn't willing to live at the faster speed.
Have you checked to see what your memory is rated for?
