I HAVE TRIED THE DETAILS BELOW BUT MY SYSTEM THEN SHUTS DOWN RIGHT AFTER I
SAVE THE BIOS AND REBOOT. Any other suggsstions?

This it?You could have searched using Google too....
1.Advanced chipset features >system performance>select Expert( this will
enable all options)
2.CPU clock> default is 17 i think, select 12 or 13(12 is safer)
3.FSB frequency > select 166, as a start(your ram will do 200,but the board
is not guaranteed to reach this.Mine only did 190ish max until i modded the
Chipset(northbridge)voltage.
12 x 166 will give you 1992 Hz(13x166 = 2158)
4.CPU interface>optimal
5.Memory frequency> same as FSB always = 166 in this case
6.mem timings(reading down), 11,2,2,2 your ram should do this at 166 easily
Leave most other stuff at defaults here i think
Power bios Features( this is where you set the voltages for CPU etc)
1. CPU voltage( default is 1.6 i think), select 1.7 or thereabouts(may not
boot at 13x166 with this,but should be ok for 12x166, no more than 1.8V)
What else, oh yeah, with overclocking you are going to see more heat so,
PC health status
1.CPU warning temp > select a reasonable value maybe 50-55C
2.Shutdown temp> maybe 60
i have mine set at 50 and 55, but then i'm watercooling
i think that is it.
exit bios and save settings
if machine does not boot or locks at post, hold Insert and Delete key on
reboot.This will load failsafe defaults, which will allow you to get into
the bios to change to easier settings
Do not quote me on all this
If machine boots at overclocked settings, check your cpu temperatures on
post screen and also when you run Windows.This is basically it.
Good luck
you may want to also upgrade to the latest bios for your motherboard, if you
haven't done so.RUN CHIP AT DEFAULT SPEEDS WHEN UPGRADING BIOS.you don't
want any lockups while doing this.
