HI, Jon:
I'd try another CPU. Can you beg or borrow one?
You should be able to select a slower BUS speed, 100, 95, 83, 66.
Perhaps slowing the BUS speed would help. If it does, you could then
raise the CPU clock to what is stamped on the CPU.
OBTW, you could mention your MB, CPU & Memory manufactures and model
numbers.
If you have slow memory, slowing the CPU won't help. (I think)
You'll need to adjust bus speed or wait states or the like.
