That depends on a lot of things, what kind of CPU and mainboard do you have ?------------------ Hilbert Hagedoorn - Chief Editor - "Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else."

Dunno if your mainboard is VIA based if so you can select 133 MHz for your memory in the BIOS. Look for somethink like FSB+33MHz------------------ Hilbert Hagedoorn - Chief Editor - "Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else."

Hmm, dunno ! Just take a good look into the BIOS and see if you can find a syntax with +33 in it.Your athlon is using a 2x100 FSB. I know for a fact that VIA mainboard have the excellent option of running memory @ 133 MHz.------------------ Hilbert Hagedoorn - Chief Editor - "Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else."
