3. H/W SETUP Motherboard Settings 2) CPU / FSB Frequency Selection (JF) The JF jumper is set to a default that operates with AMD 133 FSB capacity processors. The factory default is set to run the FSB at 133 MHz and the JF jumper is preset to [2-3] and all DSW (SW1) switches are preset to OFF. If AMD 100 MHz capacity processors are used, then reset the JF jumper to [1-2] and change the DSW (SW1) switches to the 100 MHz setting shown below. If the JF and switch settings do not match the capacit

3) CPU External Frequency Setting (SW1 Switches 1–4) This option tells the clock generator what frequency to send to the CPU, SDRAM, and the chipset. This allows the selection of the CPU’s External frequency. The CPU External Frequency multiplied by the Frequency Multiple equals the CPU’s Internal frequency (the advertised CPU speed). IMPORTANT: 1. For normal frequencies, 100, 103 and 105 MHz, the JF jumpers must be set to [1-2]. For the purpose of overclocking, 133 MHz and above, the JF jumper
