Almost correct. The K6 CPU's will interpret a mainboard multiplier jumper setting of 2x as 6x. The other jumper settings work as normal as far as I know. So you can do 2x(6x)X66Mhz=396Mhz bye, Rick "Experiment #4" <bogus@ hiding.bol> wrote in message news:9b9bfq$p3j$1@news7.svr.pol.co.uk... > I know this isn't the exact Ng but it beats "visit my site", "Russian > brides" and "get rich quick" > > I'm having problems setting the bus speed for my AMD K6-2 500Mhz processor. > I know that there is no such thing as a 500Mhz main board frequency.
