    It should autodetect the ratio by default. You'll need to make sure the Front Side Bus (also may be external clock frequency), is set to 166MHz. The CPU Ratio/Multiplier should be detected as 11.5x.

    I don't remember if you had to set a jumper or not for the FSB.

    Some motherboards do. So you won't be able to select certain fsb settings without changing the right jumper on a motherboard.

    The multiplier should be 11.5x, not 11.0x, and you may have to set the FSB in BIOS after leaving it at 100/133. I seem to recall their being some issue with the FSB dipswitch on the 7VAXP series boards, but I never verified that when I had the Ultra version of the board.
