I am trying to get the bios settings correct for my pc. I can get it to boot in auto mode, but when I
set the bus speeds and such to what I think they should be, the computer will not start.
The cpu is an Athlon 3000+, which should have a bus speed of 166 and a clock multiplier of 13. The
memory is pc3200.
I have the following set in the bios:
CPU Frequency Mode: 166MHz
DRAM Clock: 166MHz
CPU Ratio Select: 13
I have also tried going in to the manual mode for the CPU Frequency Mode, and tried these settings:
Frequency 1MHz Stepping: 166MHz
CPU to PCI Divider: /5
DRAM:AGP:pCI Clock: 166:66:33
DRAM Clock: 166MHz
CPU Ratio Select: 13x
I have also tried the above with DRAM Clock set to : By Speed
The memory should go up to 200MHz, but I would like to just get the computer to boot with the proper
processor speed first.
What am I doing wrong? I would like to get this working. Thanks!
