If it's set at 4.5x66, try setting it at 3x100 and see if it works OK. The higher bus speed helps if it is available. If that works OK, try 3.5x100 to get 350 out of it.

Suicide is painless...........

Hi, I don't understand articles. I don't know what are jumpers and multipliers and where they are how to manipulate them. I have dell xps d300 (p2) 3years old intel chipset.
