K7S7AG will not POST if RAM set faster than FSB

#1

Hi, my board failed to POST recently until i reset the BIOS. Afterward
i found that my system would not POST if FSB:RAM ratio was not 1:1.
I should be running with XP2000 at 266 with FSB 133 and DDR 333 but
can only run with DDR at 133 ??? Any advice? Thanks.

PS also found that it plays up if SMART turned on. Have re-flashed
BIOS as thought maybe corrupt. but no change.

DOUBLE data rate 133 is 266.Your memory is running at the correct speed for

the XP2000. 333 is overclocking for the memory for that processor which your
board supports but still can cause problems.Run at 133/266 and you'll never
see the difference and your system will be more stable.-Vic
