Hello,
I have an older motherboard which I was running a PIII 450Mhz (100FSB overclocked to 550). I recently bought an SL3XN (PIII 733MHz, 133FSB), thinking I could use it in this motherboard, but it gives me an error if I run at 733Mhz, 133FSB. I seem to have to run it at 550MHz.
Can I muck with the latency to get this working? I can run the CPU at 733MHz (133MHz FSB with PCI @ 1/4 (33MHz)), but the BIOS SoftMenu II gives an error: Unoperable CPU mode, and resets it to 266MHz (default).
I bought this new CPU planning to attempt overclock it to 1,000 MHz, but would happy at 733MHz! 😆
