i HAVE A p4b-e MB
iT IS 400FSB ORIENTED.
I have a 2.6 400fsb P4 iNTEL Cpu.
Memory is Kingstin value ram PC133 SDRAM
My motherboard can alter Vlotage up to 1.750 (actually measures 1.725)
I cannot run at 133 multiplier 26x133, but can at 130 multiplier
Any suggestions clues ?
At 133 boots but before entering windows XP message appears as file
missing/corrupted etc.
I have a Thermaltake cooler.
CPU temperature is from 41C to 56C
Motherboard temperarture 34C-36C

Any help would be appreciatted.

Also sometimes computer refuses to boot (first time) for several times.

Does this mean you are actually running it at 1.725 now?

No kidding? 133MHz FSB on a 2.6 is 3.46GHz.

The first would be that you may well simply have found the practical stable
limit of your CPU. Even at 130MHz you're knocking on the door of 3.4GHz, so
it's not like you have any right to complain.

The second possibility is that your system is experiencing PCI bus
corruption - have you locked the PCI and AGP buses at 33/66, or made sure
the 1/4 PCI divider is selected?

The other thing to say is that if your system runs at 130, and doesn't at
133, what happens when you try 131 or 132?

Does this still happen if you drop the PC back down to the correct speeds?
