Time Traveler- "To my disappointment, the system cannot run at 100MHz bus." Are you using PC 100 RAM? If not, that could be the problem.

I just built 2 of these. I got a PC100,M590 super socket 7 mother board. Put a K6/2,300 and overclocked to 350 with a very good fan..This board comes with 8M AGP video which it steals from my pc100 64megs and 3D sound for $88 at Chipsmart. Runs fast. Windows pop. I wait for nothing not even boot up. I love it. It seems much faster than my K6/200 with a 4 meg Creative labs video card. I know these intgrated boards got a lot of flack there first time out but they seem to got it right this time . The sales people would not even sell me the old intergrated boards but this they said was the "technician choice". The "chop shop" I went to also ran out of K6-2 and I had to go to another city to get the only 2 left. Salesmen said it was the hotest chip they had ever sold. This was a Sunday and the guy said If we dont get in any by tommorow we might as well close up shop.
