XP 2600 266 fsb?
A 2600 should be a 333 fsb,I know mine is.
If you have pc 2100 ram,it will only run @ 266 too.
If you wanna have full advantage of your mobo,you need pc 3200 ram and an Athlon xp 3200...both of them reach 400 .
I have the same mobo and run a 2600 @ 333fsb with 2 Apacher memory sticks,PC3200 @ 400.
The memory slows down to match the processor,so the value of my ram decreases to 333.
