Processor Detection Problems

I recently purchased a Gigabye GA-7VT600 Motherboard to replace an older one that died.

Right now, here are my pertinent system stats:

Gigabyte GA-7VT600 mobo
512 MB Corsair PC133 DDR-SDRAM on Bank 01
2400+ Athlon XP

The problem I've encountered is that even after toggling the dipswitch off of the 100 mhz FSB safety setting and trying to change my FSB through the BIOS (there are no other dipswitches on the mobo), the system still only allows me to chose between 100 - 132 mhz for my FSB. So my proc detects as an Athlon XP 1800+. Any clues as to what could be wrong?

Thanks in advance.
 
Try a BIOS flashing? I'm not sure on the specs of the mobo or whatnot, but I had a similar problem, and it worked for me.
