MSI K7T266A - AMD XP 1700 Absolutely wont do 133 FSB

[masterm9]

IS A 300 WATT PS TO SMALL TO RUN 133 FSB I CAN ONLY GET
100 X 11=1100 WHEN SET TO 133 IN BIOS. MONITOR GOES BLANK
TO POWER SAVE MODE, HDD& CD LIGHTS ON, FANS ON, NOBODY HOME ?
SHUT OFF, UNPLUG,CLEAR CMOS,RESTART, DEFAULT SETTINGS OK
AT 11X100
256 DDR RUNS @ 266 IN DEFAULT SPD OR MANUALLY @ 200 or 266
FLASHED BIOS FROM MSI UPDATE NO CHANGE
CHANGING FSB TO 133 MANUALLY OR BY SELECTING HIGH PERFORMANCE SETTING YIELDS SAME RESULT, NOTHING !!!

I run the same board and no problems with 300Wps
but I do have a question for you!
Do you run the PC alert III? I do and the **** thing will not show me my case fan stats or it will alarm me when it does show me and tells me that the fan is running at 0 RPMs I have a 80mm case fan running and I have changed the thing out with another and the same thing happens? tonight I ran a search in google under PC Alert III and a whole lot of querys came up with peop;e haveing alot of problems with this software!
Oh by the way go to a computer store like Compusa or radioshack and purchase a 350W or 400W ps slip it in and see if it works and then return it back just to see if it is that problem! not a very ethical proceedure but box it up real nice and give em a good excuse for returning it! a ps might cost as much as a new case so if it does work perhaps get a new case while your at it?

:) What quality of PSU have you got, i've found a cheap 350wt PSU that came with my case wouldn't boot my system, but I went to a local computer shop and he stuck a 300wt HEC psu with PFC in and it works fine i've even added more stuff since.

Size matters or does it :D

I do use pc alert III , it does show my cpu fan in different locations
on the window DUH
Im not using Fuzzy Logic
I turned off PC Alert still have same problem

My PS is a HEC 300 Watt model # 300 AR-T
it says Pentiun available, I guess thats the extra ps plug.

I wonder if the PS is not AMD copmpatible ?

Would the compter function as good as it does if the ram or cpu
were damaged.

It operates without hangs or frezzes,quite smooth just not as fast it could be .
