F'eh. Important lesson.

When building your own machine, make sure to read EVERYTHING in the mother board manual. I just realized this weekend, that my AMD XP 2400 was running at 1800 because I didnt remove the jumper that set the fsb speed of the mother board which defaulted to 100.



Stupid me. Been like that for 6 months!

whew, lucky me. I don't have to worry about improper jumper settings on this one.

The first thing I did was set my FSB to 133, with my XP 1600+, 1400 MHz.

Then again... my board has no jumpers. My BIOS rocks.
