Well, according to that manual it IS a S370-L, which IS 133FSB AND Coppermine compatible. Also - my board actually goes up to 150FSB with jumpers (the AGP card was blocking the silkscreen). So it also supports 133FSB. I've set the proper voltage on the slotket (using the manual for 1.7v), I've tried the FSB at 66, 100, 133 - I completely give up. The processor's toast. As for that good ol' celly - it won't run at 75FSB either .. anything over 66 and it just won't boot. :| Yippee for the PII @ 495Mhz (4 x 124FSB)

Did you retry the 1.8V setting with the Coppermine and JP6 accordingly set ?

To get the Celeron faster try upping the VCore to 2.2 or 2.3V but you may need good cooling.

There is no J6 .. that's only on the S370-133. The S370-L "automatically decides whether the chip is celeron or coppermine" according to the manual. And sadly, the only cooling options available right now are stock heatsinks, some UltraCut thermal paste and a jumble of fans.
