With a 40MHz cpu clock, you almost certainly can't run the PCI bus at 33MHz; I have one that gives a choice of 20MHz and 40MHz. Is there nothing on the board or the BIOS that selects between CPUCLOCK and CPUCLOCK/2 or something like that? Most likely it would work at 40MHz even though its out of spec. I suppose you could try configuring the board for a DX4-100, which would run the CPU slower but give you a 33MHz PCI bus. -- Richard
