ive had the cpu running though, when i first popped it in it came up 1800 (1.4GHz)
anyway, ive emailed the seller and asked him to supply the one he advertised or offer a refund.
cheers for the help anyway
see if it was a 2400 or a 2600 hed sent ide soon send it back, but hes sent a better chip, if i can get it to work, sweet, but if i cant then obviously ill send it back.
im going through the process of flashing the bios and booting from a floppy disc.
is this really gonna make a difference...
this is the details im getting off wikipediea though
Athlon XP 3000+ 2100 MHz 512 KiB 400 MT/s 10.5x 1.65 V 68.3 W May 13, 2003 AXDA3000DKV4E
saying its gotta be run at 10.5x400mhz
but my motherboard only goes upto 280mhz.
i tried;
200x10.5
266x8
166x12.5/13
everytime the computer resets...
motherboard only goes from 100mhz upto 280mhz. i can select anything in there in 1mhz changes.
ill try 166 next, what multiplier?
also, someone said to try updating the bios. but ill need a floppy xp boot disc with new bios on it :(
f**king pissing me off now tbh.
its either sort this...
ok the fsb goes from 100mhz upto 280mhz in my bios
plus all the multipliers from 1 upto 12.5/13.
my motherboard in the book says it supports 200/266 and 333 mhz front side bus.
the cpu thats in is Athlon XP 3000+ 2100 MHz 512 KiB 400 MT/s 10.5x 1.65 V 68.3 W May 13, 2003 AXDA3000DKV4E

its this
Athlon XP 3000+ 2100 MHz 512 KiB 400 MT/s 10.5x 1.65 V 68.3 W May 13, 2003 AXDA3000DKV4E
my motherboard supports 2800+ or higher speeds.
and 133-280mhz.
ideas?
also, i dont paticularly want to take this processor out to check the serial number as its a motherboard out job to get the heatsink back on.
so i wanna try alter it first, if its possible, if not ill have to check the serial number i guess
cpu came today for the gf's pc. stripped it down, put it in and booted it up.

missing my point completely.
if it was a very fast car (that better?) then it would need the downforce.
its a hot hatch clio. hardly needs planting to the roads as it hits the speed of sound.
re-read what i said.
take it in, understand what im getting at.
i can understand a diffuser on a 600bhp skyline.. an 800bhp twin turbo supra.. or as you say an F1 car... but would a clio need a diffuser to create that downforce?
its never "needed" a spoiler, its there purely for looks and a...
firstly, god you people have way too much to say, the ammount of drivvel in this thread is unreal.
secondly, that looks more than a 25mph crash to me, but what do i know, i only fix cars all day.
thirdly, is there anyway you can get the exhaust off the car in the yard? maybe speak to the...
its nice bit of kit, just never saw the point of em really. ive always thought if you wanna drive, go drive, if you wanna play a game, pick up a pad or grab the mouse n keyboard.
each to their own though!
