| Soyo K7VEMPRO & Athlon CPU - Soyo werbsite says this board can run an Athlon 1800 Palomino core. So I took out the Duron 850 Mhz that was running OK in there, set the FSB jumper to 266 MHz and watched it heat up and not boot. As far as I can see, nothing in BIOS to change as far as.
Just upgraded to a SY-Kt600 with an athlon xp 2500... - ANy idea what my setting should be? Im not at all trying to push my limits, just want to get what I can out of the system and keep it stable! Any generall ideas? TIA

Hi:
I build a cheap 2nd hand computer for internet use only a couple
months ago.
The motherboard, from ebay, is the K7VEMPRO (not the pro 1.0)
It had a duran 850 cpu, and the FSB was set at 200.
I just got an Athlon 1800+ 1.5GH Palamino core. The soyo website
says it should work if I run at 266FBS.
I have the 6.00pc Bios.
I set the jumper for the fsb to 266 (from 200). (Now its pins 1
and 2 instead of 2 and 3.)
At the beginning of the bootup, the screen shows the cpu to be
the correct Athlon 1800+.
But as windows 98se starts to open, I get a warning saying that :
"While initializing configmg,
Windows protection error. You need to restart your computer."
When I do, it goes into safe mode, and then crashes with the blue
screen of death.
If I turn everything off and start again, windows gets to the
point where it scans the registry (because it wasn't shut off
properly) but as soon as that's done, the warning window about the
windows protection error comes back.
No matter what I do, I can't get win98se to start.
If I put the FSB jumper back to pins 2-3 (200fsb), the computer
starts up again.
Does anyone have some ideas on whats happening/going wrong?
Do I need to make some changes besides changing the FSB jumper?
Thanks very much for any help you can give.

I was going to say check out your RAM and power supply.
Make sure your cooling is working with that processor too!
good luck!
