Newbie warning!
I just changed my mobo to an Abit NF7-S. This is the first time I have to configure my own Operating Speeds in the bios. How do I know what speeds I can select for my processor if my processor came preinstalled without any manual? I have an AMD Thunderbird K7 - 1GHz processor, but the SoftMenu setup in the bios says my CPU is:
Internal Frequency: 850MHz
External Clock: 100MHz
Multiplier Factor: 8.5
If I set it to: 1000MHz, 100MHz, 10.0 the system seems to be unstable. Shouldn't my proc be able to run in these specs? If not which document would tell me otherwise? The AMD site didn't seem to help. Thanks.
Always remember, you are unique...just like everyone else.
