It can be confusing, but the "actual" FSB setting is 133MHz. This is "double pumped" so that the "effective" speed is 266MHz FSB. Basically, they're the same thing.
There are 2 versions of 1.4GHz Athlon (T-bird) - one is clocked at 14 x 100MHz (200FSB version) & the other is clocked at 10.5 x 133MHz (266FSB version).
Hopefully you have PC133 RAM so that both the CPU & RAM can run at the same bus speed (133MHz).
