Yeah, your system FSB or Front side bus is set for 100Mhz. Set it for
166Mhz.

There's probably a jumper on the board or a dip switch to do this.

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:

I think some mobo's don't recognize the appropriate bys speed. You may want
to check to make sure the speed is set to the proper value in the bios setup
utility.
