I had installed the device with the 4 lights on it that show codes. I
checked the code showing and determined it was an issue with jumpers. I got
the manual out and set the jumpers to safe mode and 100mhz fsb and it
booted. I then made my changes in bios and put the jumper back to 133/166
and it now seems to be fine. Had me scared there for a month that I had
trashed the bios.
Thanks for the help.
