Tracy,
First double check the multiplier for the CPU. It should be 3.5 (3.5 X 66
MHz = 233 MHz.) Another possibility is that the motherboard does not
support chips faster that 200 MHz. This can probably be corrected with a
BIOS update from BIOSTAR. I have an ASUS motherboard that gave me the same
problem until an update from ASUS upgraded the speed capabilities.
The BIOSTAR site is located at:

Check under DRIVERS for your BIOS updates...
