how to set in bios an amd 3200+ at 3000+?

Ok, the case is that my memo can't run fine at 400, so i need to put it at
333.
The problem here it's that in auto bios config, my mobo said i had a 2500+.

Question: can't i put my cpu at 3000+ at 333? or something above 2500+? i
try change the fsb a 180 and do not work. Try to change the multiplicity
values, and the mobo reports 1100mhz or something like that!

I am doom? ;)

2200 (3200+) OPGA 200 512   11x   1.65V 85oC 60.4W
1833 (2500+) OPGA 166 512   11x   1.65V 85oC 53.7W

The multiplier is probably locked. Simply changing the clock from
200 to 166 will cause the core clock to drop from 2200MHz to 1833MHz.

Leave the clock at 200Mhz.

If you look in the BIOS, there is a setting called "Memory Frequency".
The [Sync] setting is what you would use, if you want the FSB and
the memory to run at the same speed. Sync is the equivalent of 100%.
In your case, you are asking how to "turn down" the memory, and
a setting of 83% will result in FSB400/DDR333 combo.

After making this change, test again with memtest86+ and Prime95.
This change is not always stable.

Yucks, I didn't even try that option, i just though that the fsb of the
cpu-memo has to be the same!

gosh, i'm so blind! :)

That works perfect, thanks a lot! :)
