Title: question about 4 in 1 drivers
Post by: -ammo- on November 01, 2001, 11:54:00 AM
I should recieve my hardware new MB, CPU, HD, etc.. and want to get started building and installing. I was going to D/L the 4 in 1 drivers to have ( I am using Win2K SP2 for an OS) but the page (http://www.viahardware.com/download/index.shtm#4in1) has many versions to D/L. Do I just D/L the latest version?

new system spec's--

Thats what I did ammo and have had zero problems.  I think each is just a minor improvement on the former.  Piece of cake to install too  :)

Good luck!

nother question, looking at the MB manual, it states that teh default jumper setting for the CPU Host clock select is 100MHz, but I can set it at 133MHz. Which shopuld I use if I am using PC2100 RAM?

Your new CPU is a Athlon XP 1600 right?  Use 133 MHz for bus speed with a 10.5x multiplier.  Read this (http://support.crucial.com/scripts/crucial.exe/solution?11=010612-0004&130=000992366697&14=&2715=&15=&2716=&57=faq&58=&2900=&25=-1) down where it explains PC2100--use 133MHz.

TY sir :) So I just set the jumper in the 133 position and no other action by me is needed?
