Hey, Ij ust built my first new computer in the last 5 years and I
tried to get all the top of the line components. I have the amd 3200+
400mhz fsb, the a7n8x asus motherboard and a stick of 512mb 3200 ddr
memory. However, the system won't boot up unless I set the external
frequency in the bios to 100mhz. Other wise i'm getting different
errors every bootup but it will never finish all the way. I'm guessing
some bios or jumper setting is f'ed up but I really don't know this is
the first computer i've ever built. Thanks for any suggestions.
 
Check the jumper on the board for FSB. It should default to 400/333/266 but
it might be set to 200. Try that, you can find the location of that jumper
in the manual.
