New KT133A and 266 bus...

FakeMcCoy

If the KT133A boards coming out support the 266MHz bus, does that require a special cpu that uses it, or would any Socket A do the job? Is the 200/266 deal a motherboard-only issue? I'm about to build a system with the KT133A, and I'm unsure if I need a special proc.

I have a digital camera that uses floppy disks. I can read the pictures off the disk but when i go to reformat the floppy, the only option is FAT, and my camera wants a fresh FAT32 floppy every time.
