I have a 2600+ AMD proccessor, and have set the CLK ratio to auto default, The problem is XP is reading the proccessor as a 2000xp.can anyone help with the CLK Ratio switch settings to get the most out of the proccessor ........thanks
 
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.

Hi Thanx for the help, but I have set the CK-Ratio to 11xand the SW1 to 166, I cant find any jumpers on the GA-7VAXP board other than F-Audio jumpers.and on the new settings it just wont boot up at all, also tried it on 133and100. have you any idea 's
thanx again
 
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.
