    help with athlon 3000+

    damn good question wusy. Herder, I believe you need to take off the fan and heatsink (HSF) and literally look at the code on the chip, write it down, then you or someone can look it up. I thought that a program like WCPUID would tell you but it doesn't. <font color=blue>AMD XP2500+ @...

    help with athlon 3000+

    I'm guessing a little, but just to be safe.... I also have an A7N8X board and remember seeing a jumper on the board for two different FSB settings. (ie. 100/133 & 166/200 or something like that. Maybe it was 133/166 & 166/200) You might want to open up the manual and poke around for that FSB...

    Barton 2500

    from what I've read recently, it kind of depends upon your end goal. The 2500's out there now that are locked are still adjustable on the FSB side. So, if you have a decent MB, you can still change your FSB from the stock 166Mhz to the 200Mhz and see a substantial gain. That change alone...

    ASUS A7N8X & 2500Barton Multplier

    Thanks for the attention guys... I did try bumping the voltage. I had worked it up slowly and even though it worried me, I even went to the highest setting. (what was that 1.8 or 1.85?) I was still getting the instability at 200x 'pretty much anything'. :) I should have mentioned previously...

    ASUS A7N8X & 2500Barton Multplier

    Hey everyone, I was hoping someone might be able to tell me if I'm doing something wrong, or if I'm just sh!t outta luck. I've had my 2500Barton up to 2.3G with a 200FSB, but it would always crash when gaming. (never under tests though) So, I backed it down to 2.1 at 166FSB and it's stable...

    Radeon VE in Win2K resume from standby problem

    I am having the following problem with a new PC I am building. It enters standby mode fine, but when it resumes from standby it mostly simply shows the blue desktop (no icons or start bar) and a white mouse cursor that moves but does nothing else. Sometimes it just freezes with a black screen...
