I have an athlon 2200XP processor that I want to run on an abit motherboard. The BIOS screen initially shows the speed of the processor as 1337. FSB 100 x Ratio 13.5. The FSB can be altered in the BIOS settings but I am not sure the correct one. I know that the 2200 does not run at 2200.
Can anyone point me to the correct settings

Your CPU runs at 1800 MHz with a FSB speed of 133 MHz and a 13.5 multiplier.

SKI Are you sure about it being 1800 MHz? I have the 3000+ and this runs at (by default in the BIOS) at 1809 MHz with a multiplier of 9.0 and HTT (Hyper Transporting Thread? - Front side bus?) of 201.0 MHz.

This info was garnered from CPU-Z ver 133

Hi Ski,
Many thanks for the information. My Bios was set to "User defined" with 100 FSB and Mulitiplier of 13.5, which gave me my original speed. When I set it to the other option "CPU DEFAULT" the values are set as you said with the CPU shown correctly as a ATHLON 2200 but running at 133 FSB and a mutiplier of 13.5

You're welcome. Glad that you were able to fix things.

Ernie,
Here's where I got the info:

AMD's official chart.
AMD Athlone 64

Just dawned on me. AMD64 or AMD XP?

biggtn specifies an XP CPU in his 1st post. Also, selecting 'CPU Default' in BIOS configured the CPU to its design setting.

Those charts on Tom's Hardware are very useful, but do be careful with them. I've found more than one error among them...

Thanks for the heads-up, saph.
