don't increase it to 166 MHz unless u have a Athlon XP Barton Core wich operates on 333 MHz

Barton are 2400+ upwords but popular are 2600+.
with 2400+ u must be having older core @ 266 MHz

Hey Guyz.....u r right.....AMD Athlon XP 2800+ means performance equal to P4 2.8Ghz........Mine one showing 2.09Ghz for 2800+.........But with Windows Xp it works with rocket speed....(includes games too.....)

HERE IS YOUR ANSWERS

u must be having an onboard gpu,which shares ram from the system memory.so consider the gpu share 32mb of sys ram,then ur effective ram will be 128-32 =96mb.

u must upgrade immediately as 128mb is the minimum requirement to run most games,even winxp.else u can go for an agp, gforce fx5200 w/128mb videoram is available for 2500.i suggest u must have 256mb minimum ram,as u have a decent processor.else u will have bottlenecs.
so it's vice to invest in a decent ramstic, which will cost u rs 1000 (for another128mb ddr)

now, dont upgrade to longhorn , u better go or windows XP. it is much better and stable than win98.and it looks and works better also.

the probs with the games may be of ::

1. overheating / check processor heat/mobocipset heat immediately after the crash. This can be done in bios system health status.

2.if everything is ok, thn it's ur onboard gpu..via/s3 integrated solutions cant play new games at all...so invest in an agp if u play games.

if it's an nforce chipset, that should play most games, still, not with much bells and whistles.

CONCLUTION :

ur system is perfect, but if u r a gamer or multimedia enthusiast, thn put at least 256 mb ram, upgrade to winxp, install a decent agp.
U will get atleast 50 to 65% performance boost if u r running win xp in this.

let me have ur thoughts pls.

This is not a problem boss. It's just a setting u need to do.Many motherboards have the facility to do it automaticaly also, ASUS being exception.

There is nothing wrong with this ..even novice users can set it up..just read the manual and set up the jumpers as instructed ..or sometimes u can adjust this in bios also...
