I have an Athlon XP 1700, (1.47GHz), and an ASUS A7V266-E MB. I"m at the place where you set the CPU External Frequency Selection DIP Switches. My choices are: 100MHz, 133.33MHz, or 140MHz.
I think I need 133.33MHz, is that right?

I just can't get the math to work out. It says that the BUS CLOCK multiplied by the Frequency Multiple, = the CPU's Advertised Speed(1.47MHz).

After this choice I need to choose the CPU Ratio Setting> Choices are: 8X, 8.5x, 9x, 9.5x, 10x, 10.5x. Can someone explain the math to me, and tell me what my settings are that will multiply out to 1.47MHz?

Thanks
