Motherboard manuals are normally always out of date. I had some fun recently after rebuilding my PC. It would power up, beep 4 times then power down. Okay I thought, I'll refer to my motherboard manual to see what the four beeps mean..........surprise, surprise it wasn't in their. So at work I went to Abits website for support. After going through several pages I found out that my version of my BIOS will shut down my PC if no fan tachometer signal is detected on FAN1 header. I had my CPU fan plugged into FAN2 header. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/rolleyes.gif So the moral is the story is motherboard manuals are cr@p
Anyway, your correct in saying the KT133 chipset supports 100/133 FSB while the KT133A supports the new 266FSB.
John, My friend is running a 1.4Ghz 266FSB Athlon without any problems on his KT133 motherboard. As far as I know the new Athlon 266FSB just means the CPU is capable of utilising the new 266FSB while being still backward compatible with 100/133 FSB.
