Can't set 166 jumper setting on K7VMP

Is this board a red headed step child? I find very few specific
listings for it in tech updates! I am running an XP 2600+ Barton with
a 333 FSB. It is being recognized as an XP 2000+. My understanding
was that the jumpers needed reset on the mobo to 166 (jumping 2,3 in
the first col and 4,5 in the second) When I did this the computer
will not power up, rather it emits a steady pulsing beep. I have the
latest BIOS so any advice appreciated.

Per Soyo tech, this may be a memory issue. See:

Try swapping memory or moving to different slot.
What kind/brand of memory are you using ??
Please list complete system specifications if possible............

Also, check Soyo support for other beep codes,

Here's what I'd try.........(in answer to your previous post)

Make sure your "Barton" is 333 FSB
Turn system off, unplug power supply
Clear CMOS with jumper JP5
Set jumpers on board at FJ1 shorting pins 2-3 and 4-5 (pins 1 and 6 are
open) for 333FSB
Turn system on, enter bios setting and set processor and memory speeds
manually
