Jim,
I have used the AMD 266 with the FIC board for several clients.  Don't
seem to have any more problems than with AMD approved boards.  But then
again, I seem to have more problems  than usual with the 266 regardless
of the board.  It seems to be very picky about memory.

As for overclocking the 200 I run it on my personal machine at
75x3 (225) on a Epox P55TV2  board and it runs like a champ. (Note:
Advise on overclocking is my own and does not represent a suggestion
from Customer Resource Computers.)
