HELP!! I just built my computer (see specs below). Got it started up, worked absolutely perfect. I went into the CMOS to check some settings, restarted, and then it wouldn't load windows. I reset the motherboard, and it loads windows again. Another thing, It now reads the FSB as 100 instead of 266, and the Processor clock at 1050 MHz instead of 1400. The 2100 DDR is running at 200 Mhz instead of the intended 266. I don't know if i did something or what, but everything was perfect when i initially started it, even the MHz ratings.
Another thing, the CPU is running at about 50°C. Is this ok, or can i cool it down some more?

I really need your help on this one guys.

you must set the FSB to 133, this can be done on the motherboard and some computers throught the BIOS. Check the manually.

you're saying set the fsb to 133 even though my chip is capable of 266? i take it this means it will just be mulitplied. what about the ram speed?
