Sounds like a good thing to try, but I'm not sure of what you mean by
"critical speed control." I only know what the BIOS tells me, which is
CPU External Frequency (The Front Side Bus is equal to 2 times this
value)
Options: 100, 133, 166, or 200 MHz
CPU Frequency Multiple Setting
Options: Auto or Manual
CPU Frequency Multiple (only if above field is set to Manual)
5x to 13x (when Auto is set above, it sets itself to 11.0x)
...and some overclocking settings that I can only imagine would further
destabilize my system. Although, as I said, that is only a guess.
Thanks for the tip, Donn.
