Does anyone know how to change the FSB on a Gateway 310SE? There does not appear to be a setting for it in the bios, and tech support as usual is useless, if it's not in their script they don't know how to do it.

Typically, PC manufacturers like Gateway do not includer BIOS options such as FSB but you could look at the motherboard and see if there are any jumpers that you could change.

I'm not trying to overclock. The FSB is set at 266, however the system has PC2700 (DDR333) memory installed, and it came that way from the factory. Just curious if there is any way to change it, or if not why they would use DDR333 if the mobo could not be set for that speed? I raelize that it is backwards compatible but find it starnge that they would do this.

A question:

If it's not in their script, not in their documention, not in their knowledgebase, not in their tech specs why would you go there?? Just curious.
