my setup crashes at random above 180fsb
i can't find the problem

setup:
tbred b (forgot to write the stepping down)
abit kx7 (from duron)
audigy 2
3com 100/10mbit
geforce 4mx (sucky brand)
pioneer dvd-rom
seagate barracuda 4
and a stick of takeMS pc3200 (shop has no complaints of these whatsoever)

everything is configured right (using 5:2:1 divider)
system used to ran stable on an abit kr7a with 170 fsb and a 4:2:1 divider
so pci/agp speeds shouldn't be the problem
i'm totally lost here

help?

jmke

can you run the memory async?

remove the audigy/3com and pioneer, then try again

maybe a dumb question, but how do i run it async at 200MHz?

vegeta

kx-7 doesn't support running your ram assyncronic

try to give some more voltage trough the chip and ram if you have descent cooling.

lower mp up your fsb

jmke

you put the memory at 166 with the FSB at 133
but not like the nforce2 ones where you can gain little by little

jakkerd

tried that, no go

nut'n
i even removed the hard drive, to see if would post at 200MHz, but still nothing

edit: my samsung pc2700 had the same problem, i thought it had reached its max, but the problem remains, very freaky

jmke

hmmm even with the CPU underclocked (very low MP) ?
try another vidcard

vidcard is crappy indeed
but it ran at an agp-speed of 85MHz on the kr7a
and agp is at 72MHz now

and i don't have a spare vidcard (will try to borrow one, if i can get a hold of my borrow-friend )
