New CPU
I just got a new cpu (socket 7 Intel 233 w/MMX) and I was wondering if I could figure out what the jumper settings are for it. I've set the voltage to 2.8 but I need to set the frequency ratio and the system clock jumper settings. It's an old motherboard that I don't have the manual for and I went on the homepage for it and wasn't able to figure it out. The motherboard is made by MTI and it is model M549. The homepage is www.mtiusa.com

What is happening, is that the motherboard is not reading your memory or cache correctly, I will check the specs and post more
here fior you plus I will e-amil the manual to you.

I have sent you all the printed info that I have on this board
by e-mail, I have also sent you a utility called:
KILLCMOS.ZIP, with all the instructions on how to use it to
clear your CMOS of false settings and restore it to the
factory settings.
In the meantime, you need to try some different memory
on your board. USE 72 PIN EDO 60ns Memory or 72 PIN
FPM 60ns memory. On this board you have to install
2 identical 72 PIN SIMM MODULES in 2 adjacent SIMM slots
for them to work.
You only have 1 DIMM slot, DO NOT put any meory in this
168 PIN DIMM slot as your board has an early VIA VXP
chipset called a SUPER-TX chipset(this is NOT an Intel TX
chipset by a VIA VXP that uses the name SUPER-TX). and these
early versions of this chipset did not support DIMM memory
very well.
Try all of this and repost your findings here.
