Archived from groups: alt>comp>periphs>mainboard>msi-microstar (more info?)

I was tweaking the bios on the FSB and moved it from 166 to 200. Now the
mobo won;t boot. I tried resetting the cmos with the jumper 5 or 6 times. I
pulled the battery out. I pulled the battery and reset the jumper. I left
the power cord plugged in and I unplugged it.

I did get it to reboot 1x but it wouldn't accept the del to get to bios and
tried to boot from the A drive and read "checksum error".

Any suggestions on what to try now? Was working fine until that tweak. Is
the bios trashed? Any way to correct or workaround?

Thanks,

i cant find my manual to give you exact details but theres a jumper very
close to the agp slot with three pins. remove the jumper from 1&2 and put on
2&3 this sets the fsb to 'recovery 100mhz fsb'
now you should be able to startup, go into bios and change the fsb back to
166
shut down and put jumper back to original place

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.
