don't know if it's the MoBo, processor, or RAM...BUT:
If I try to o/c at all, I get no post, nothing...
I've tried switching RAM around, and I thought this was a natively 133Mhz Processor.
I'm running it on an ABIT KT-7 RAID, bought it around time of KT-7A release, and I even understood, that some of those, in the last generation of manufacture, were KT-7As, don't know if that'll make a difference.
BIOS is up to date.
Processor, is a Blue Cored 1.3Ghz T-Bird, but if I try to bump the speed in anyway, but down, it will not post.
Any help will be great!
Thanks!
(Oh yeah, and I have already "pencil tricked" it)

sounds more like a RAM timing problem

hmmm even bumped it down to CAS 3, because one of the sticks says it'll run 133, at CAS 3, but not CAS 2(yea stupid cheap stick)
but I"ve even pulled the stick and tried this with just the stick of Crucial RAM I have(which is rated at 133 at CAS2)

I did forget one thing, I think I might just be setting my multiplier/bus/voltage settings wrong... does anyone know of a link, that might give me a chart, of proper voltage vs Bus/multiplier? is there such a thing?

Thanks again
