Heloo favorite peepz, Im running a celeron 2.5ghz 400mhz bus quad pump and this l4vxa2 ecs mobo. I just want to ask a few things on the setup to make sure Im doing the right thing. The cpu frequency is at 100mhz in bios, and Im running 512mhz of pc3200, is this setup ok and correct? Somehow Im still not clear about all this fsb and what kind of ram run for what chip. Amd 266mhz fsb I then use pc2100 because the bus is at 133. Amd 333mhz fsb chip then I use pc2700 because the bus is at 166. Now this celeron is at 400mhz, and I only have the option to have the bus speed set from 100-133, and Im still not sure if Im using the right ram. Is everything I set ok???

No it's not at 400MHz - no more than PC2100 actually runs at 266MHz. Yours is really 100MHz quad-pumped. An Athlon uses 133MHz double-pumped (2x133=266). Don't confuse them. Intel=quad and AMD=double.
All the Celeron needs is PC1800. You have way more than you need, which is good. :)
