Many thanks guys.....I've been lurking :)

This rig kept on cutting out and re-starting. With reading this group,
I've taken it apart, dusted the innards...especially the blocked up
cooling fins, cleaned up and used arctic wossname. It now runs at 39 to
40C (was 54'sh+ until it cut out) and hasn't cut out in the last four
hours (a record).

It's an amd 1.3G running at 1.0G on a VT8366-8233 board.
Bus clock at 100mhz
512Mb ram
XP pro

My question is how to set up the clock just that little bit. I didn't
bother about it before because it had heat probs but now I think it
should be ok for it's correct setting of 1.3G
Cheers
Jim

Set the FSB to 133mhz instead of 100mhz.

Actually I also wanted to know how to do that...but assumed from what
you'd said from the bios. It worked fine, thanks very much indeed, all
now worky worky. Big smilies all-round :)

Yarr-I-know :) Ackshirley I think it's the go-faster-stripes on the side
wot-dunnit. Certainly made my old mini go faster speshully when it had
'ad a wash an' that :)

It was more of a 'I should know how to do this' more than anything else
actually. I realise that I'd not notice the difference even if it was
much biggerererer even :) Perhaps I should have explained that bit first
:-)

Loading in AC97 audio thingy brought it skidding to a halt with a BSOD.
Error on start up is

"Error loading cmincfg.cpl This specified xxxxxxxx couldn't be found.

WriteConfig@ACAdapterConfig@@QAEHXZCouldNot be located in the dynamic
link library athcfg11.dll"

I have scant knowledge so the above is beyond me. Can anyone here shed
any light please? The sound board worked fine on previous disks...

UPDATE....
On loading in Power dvd 5 just now, it says it has no onboard sound!
Does this mean the mobo has gasped it's last? It worked fine until it's
previous disk died yesterday....

Make sure it isn't turned off in the bios settings. Make sure PCI and
AGP bus are set to 33/66mhz respectivley.

I've just looked through the bios for that machine and I cant anywhere
that I can reset PCI and/or AGP settings other than for the aperture
size for the AGP which is 64mhz.

I'm a bit lost here to say the least but thanks for the help.
If it helps the board is a VT8366-8233 and the bios is award software
6.00PG dated 01/02/2003

Further action.... I've just looked under device manager and found the
sound not installed. When I attempted to do this it fiorst of all found
the AC97 sound thingy but after trying to install it, it came up with
"Access is denied" and words to the affect that a fault exists which
stopped loading of the sound system.

your drivers are jumbled. remove all sound devices from 'sound and
multimedia'
and ANY lines under ;other devices; in the device manager
