I'd love to pop in a 166 in there (and considering the bus speed >is the same 66Mhz for both the 100 and 166, that's great!) Hi Ricardo: I copied this from Micron Forum in CompuServe, quoting a note from Sharky of Micron Tech Support: >>In order to be able to upgrade from the P133 to the P166 you need to have a >> REV B MB. Rev B MB's have an additional jumper on them to set the higher >>clock multiplier (2.5X). We started shipping the Rev B MB's in late October or early November. >>If you have a rev B MB, before you upgrade to the P166 you will have to flash >> the BIOS to the rev 10 BIOS, otherwise the CPU is not recognized by the system. According to this, since your Millennia P100 is about a year old; you do not have the Rev B MB; therefor, P166 is not possible to be installed on you system. I hope this helps. Humphrey H. Chen
