    Sorry for dragging this up again:
    Got new memory, rated for 300mhz thinking that I'd be able to run the fsb @ 278 and the cpu @ 2.5 (278*9). Thing is whenever I change the memory to 200 from 166 the pc won't boot. Is this the mainboard holding me back now? Would it be better runninc cpu at 2.5 with the ram at 227 (5:6 divider) or find the fastest FSB I can boot at and have the cpu running at less than the 2.5ghz I have it at now?
