well i've given up, there seems no way that an amd5x86-133 will run with

my motherboard. i've tried all combinations that i can think of, but it

still hangs on boot with the chip set to a quadrupler. set to a tripler,

it runs as you would expect exactly at the speed of a dx-100. i stiil

dont see why, when a multiplier chip, afaik, should look just like a

dx-33 externally. ah well such is life. ):



            keith



ps. i tried another motherboard of identical model, jumpered as far as i

could tell exactly the same. it still hung in exactly the same way with

the chip set as a quad, but with it set as a tripler, it gave a landmark

of 270 instead of 475 with my motherboard ??????



... Suck damnit suck, blow is only a figure of speech.
