Kx7-333r Fsb Help

[Mr Dead]

Just spent a load of cash on a 550w psu and water cooling kit. Great temps @ 35C. the problem is i cant get the fsb above 159!!
even with the 5:2:1 divider. I am running samsung pc2700 mem so i cant see what the prob is. p.s. ive set the multiplier to 11.

when i set the fsb to 166 starts to boot then resets with blue screens of death.

my system -

amd xp2100, kx7-333r, watercooling, 512mb samsung pc2700, soundblaster 5.1 live, leadtech ti4200 128mb, 2X maxtor 60 gig raid 0.

What are your memory settings set to in your bios?

What are your voltage settings in bios?

ack. that sounds just like me.

i have watercooling, a kx7r and 2x512mb samsun D step 2700.

my max FSB is about 188-189. i had to slack my ram settings for that and give the ram about 2.75vcore. 2.85 doesn't stablize it about 190. at 190 i get BIOS checksum errors.

i put AS3 on my NB cooler. that prolly helps. the board is solid though. unless yours is defective, you can get to 200mhz with good ram and PCI/AGP devices.

YEAH! samsun 2700!! my sammy would not run at 166mhz with 2.55vddr. it would only do it at 2.75vddr.
