Hi,

I'm stuck with replacing a p2 400 CPU on a biostar m6TLC motherboard.
It previously had a p2 266 CPU in it.
Now that the new one is in(400) it only runs at 266 mhz, no matter
what jumper settings I use... I only know little about this stuff and I allready
googled my ass of but I couldn't find a sufficient answer so far.
I think it would be possible to let it run at 333 mhz (the most the board can handle)
Does anyone have an idea???

Help is really appreciated!

You probably have to set the FSB to 100 MHz somewhere..

This board uses 66MHz FSB chipset 440LX. That's why PII-400 runs at 266MHz.

Not really. There may be overclocking settings for 75 or 83 MHz, but this overclocks all components like PCI bus, IDE bus, AGP and so on.

Ok, so the only thing possible is buy a pIII 333 mhz, running on 60 mhz fsb?

PII-333 or any SLOT1 Celeron (max 400MHz) or PPGA Celeron (max 533MHz) with slotket.
