Bought this motherboard recently, works great, has a Pentium III 500mhz. Can't find a manual or jumper document and would like to set the FSB to 133mzh. Anybody 😀 ?
Sorry cannot find a manual. The Aeton website was never fully archived but did have the manual and a bios until they gave up the web domain..

Can you take a good picture of the board ? specially around the area with what appears labeled as SW1 between the cpu and ram ?
Here is best pictures I found, probably the board you bought..
Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. This is indeed the board I purchased : )
I think I figured SW1 out based an the current 500mhz. But I probably need to change SW2 to change the front side bus
Appears to have a Winbond w83194ar clock. Since it has 6 jumpers check the datasheet, check page 4.

As a test I would pull the jumper on Sw2 and see if it boots at 333Mhz. If it does then put jumper on first pin set (far right) and see if it boots at 450mhz (90mhz x 5).

Have you tried anything with SW2 ?

I changed the Pentium 500/100mhz for a pentium 933/133 MHz, but it boots as 700mhz (100x7). It seems the multiplier of the cpu is auto detected or maybe locked. Placing the jimpers of SW2 at a different location gives no post. But there are quite some combinations I need to check. It doesn't seem to give 133mhz with the suggested setting from the Winbond manual, but it still might have a clue. Setting it to 133mhz resulted in a 112 fsb : )
