BIOS Settings for KM400

[tcc2f6]

I've got a Biostar 210 ideq bare bones (http://www.biostar-usa.com/ideqdetails.asp?model=ideq+210v) and it occasionally is giving me the blue screen in XP. I am curious if I have my mobo settings correct.

I've got 2 sticks of Crucial 1GB 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) and an AMD 2600 333 Athlon XP.

The processor has 266 FSB, but I completely forget how to set the multipliers and all the proper BIOS for this processor/RAM, and the manual isn't helping at all.

Any advice/help?

Thanks!

Try setting your ram timings to the settings in cpuid, a free download. It lists recommended settings for various fsb settings in the memory section. Check to see if the board is running your memory at 166 or 200.

Most boards will run fine at completely default settings. Try clearing BIOS. Also, try running stability tests (memtest/Prime) to see if you can narrow down the problem.
