I too, have a P2-266, but am blessed with an Asus P2L97 MB. I had almost
exactly the same results. I tried overclocking to 300 and 333 by changing
the bus multiplier. 66x4.5 (297MHz) caused a no-boot situation and 66x5
(330) made the computer think it was a P2-133, and acted as such. In order
for me to get a successful overclock I had to change the bus speed to 75 or
83. I have a feeling these P2-266 do not want their multipliers changed (no
surprises there.) 75x4 resulted in a successful 300MHz, and 83x4 resulted in
a successful 332Mhz. My MB has its jumpers for bus and multiplier in two
seperate areas, but is well documented.

One thing to take note of: the 440LX chipset does not officially support bus
speeds of 75MHz and 83MHz(but it seems to handle them quite nicely)

As for Epox, never heard of 'em. (Doesn't necessarily mean they suck, but
hey ya never know)

It is possible to O/C to 300 or 333, but it's just a matter of finding the
magic jumpers. Good luck.
