DreamerSpawn · 01-03-2005, 11:39 PM

I have the Asus MB: A7S333 and I am trying to put in the AMD Athlon XP 1700+ CPU (1.47 GHz). I use 1 Gig (2x512MB) Kinsington PC2100 ram. The CPU has a 266 FSB.

I need to know what jumper pins/switches I need to alter to make this work properly. I have to have it set at 1.1 GHz right now, just to let me get on here to make this post.....but it still gives me problems from time to time. The MAIN problem is when I turn the computer on (with the 1.47 GHz setting), it powers up just long enough to shut right back down (power wise).

I have been told that I may have to mess with the DSW (CPU External Frequency Selection). It is currently set to all switches OFF, which is 100/100.

Please help me guyz...my Gigabyte MB just took a major digger on me and this MB is my last hope. Please respond soon.
