If you can get it to boot and run with 100/100/33 then I would say it
is neither the CPU nor the Mobo but the ram which is at fault since
Since the Mobo is not autodetecting the CPU correctly it probably
isnt autodetecting the right core voltage either. Have you checked
this out? You can also increase the fsb speed incrementally with the
CUSL2 bios. Have you tried running, say 101/101/34 or something like
that?
