That's the first issue. Rebooting during heavy use might not be related - i.e. FSB timing issue. Is the mobo rated for such a fast processor? How about the RAM? -drl
Post #74,138 by cwbrenn 1/12/03 3:04:43 PM Reply	I think so. Since the cpu is running at about 1250 mhz, and the board specs include that rating (and the bios accurately reports it, etc.) But I'm not sure. I don't know about the ram. I wasn't aware that ram could be rated for processor speeds. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding the question... "We are all born originals -- why is it so many of us die copies?" - Edward Young
Post #74,143 by deSitter 1/12/03 4:01:29 PM Reply	Oh yes The RAM has to match the front-side bus speed. This will really show up if you pop in a fast processor. There's no point of having a faster processor if the FSB can't keep up with it. We tend to forget that a computer is a miracle of timing. -drl

Having the darndest time trying to troubleshoot this problem - (cwbrenn) - (49) - Jan. 12, 2003, 09:42:16 AM EST

Check the mounting holes on the MB - (folkert) - (33) - Jan. 12, 2003, 10:03:48 AM EST

It could be the Current Draw with the BAD - (folkert) - (31) - Jan. 12, 2003, 11:05:32 AM EST

Hehehe, glad you like it - (cwbrenn) - Jan. 12, 2003, 11:28:08 AM EST

Yeah, try a BIOS upgrade. - (static) - (29) - Jan. 12, 2003, 09:50:18 PM EST

Well, I tried updating the BIOS - (cwbrenn) - (28) - Jan. 12, 2003, 11:03:30 PM EST

Updating the BIOS doesn't seem to work. - (cwbrenn) - (27) - Jan. 12, 2003, 11:57:28 PM EST

Try resetting the CMOS - (orion) - Jan. 13, 2003, 12:53:21 AM EST

That it's now reporting the CPU correctly is actually good. - (static) - (25) - Jan. 13, 2003, 01:01:22 AM EST

Or check the CPU fan - (orion) - (1) - Jan. 13, 2003, 02:16:12 AM EST

Well, the CPU fan/heat sink - (cwbrenn) - Jan. 13, 2003, 09:25:54 AM EST

But if it were a bad driver for one of the peripherals, - (cwbrenn) - (22) - Jan. 13, 2003, 09:24:44 AM EST

Not particularly... - (folkert) - (21) - Jan. 13, 2003, 09:42:02 AM EST

OK, the specs. - (cwbrenn) - (20) - Jan. 13, 2003, 10:48:04 AM EST

Good... now onto... - (folkert) - (2) - Jan. 13, 2003, 12:25:53 PM EST

ok, but... what is KNOPPIX? - (cwbrenn) - (1) - Jan. 13, 2003, 12:46:10 PM EST

Well... _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Chris READ!!!!! - (folkert) - Jan. 13, 2003, 09:12:40 PM EST

Windows XP hardware registration ... ick. - (static) - (16) - Jan. 13, 2003, 06:26:01 PM EST

More information - (cwbrenn) - (15) - Jan. 14, 2003, 08:04:16 AM EST

Ouchy.... - (folkert) - (13) - Jan. 14, 2003, 08:46:40 AM EST

of cards and coolers... - (cwbrenn) - (12) - Jan. 14, 2003, 09:24:02 AM EST

Review the placement of each card - (Steven A S) - Jan. 14, 2003, 09:42:33 AM EST

On cooling... - (folkert) - (10) - Jan. 14, 2003, 11:51:44 AM EST

I use airflow dynamics... - (folkert) - (3) - Jan. 14, 2003, 12:47:19 PM EST

"Airflow dynamics?" - (cwbrenn) - (2) - Jan. 14, 2003, 03:10:46 PM EST

Uhhh.... *SHRUG* - (folkert) - (1) - Jan. 14, 2003, 03:54:06 PM EST

I can't help it - (cwbrenn) - Jan. 14, 2003, 04:23:31 PM EST

Add a component and it does work - (Silverlock) - (4) - Jan. 14, 2003, 04:31:59 PM EST

Ugh :) - (deSitter) - (3) - Jan. 14, 2003, 04:37:34 PM EST

Huh? - (Silverlock) - (2) - Jan. 14, 2003, 04:45:45 PM EST

LMAO! - (inthane-chan) - Jan. 14, 2003, 04:57:24 PM EST

Re: Huh? - (deSitter) - Jan. 14, 2003, 05:10:03 PM EST

Check the IRQ->slot list in the m/b manual. - (static) - Jan. 14, 2003, 07:25:31 PM EST

Chris, I did not see mention of thermal compound. - (a6l6e6x) - (1) - Jan. 12, 2003, 11:48:19 AM EST

Yeah, using Silver thermal compound - (cwbrenn) - Jan. 12, 2003, 03:01:11 PM EST

Timing issue? - (deSitter) - (2) - Jan. 12, 2003, 01:07:27 PM EST

I think so. - (cwbrenn) - (1) - Jan. 12, 2003, 03:04:43 PM EST

Oh yes - (deSitter) - Jan. 12, 2003, 04:01:29 PM EST

They're different generation, so different T not unusual. - (Another Scott) - Jan. 12, 2003, 03:41:11 PM EST

Odd - (JayMehaffey) - (6) - Jan. 12, 2003, 03:49:17 PM EST

That's *very* hot. - (Another Scott) - (4) - Jan. 12, 2003, 04:06:34 PM EST

I'm very sure. - (cwbrenn) - (2) - Jan. 12, 2003, 04:18:28 PM EST

Oh, nevermind. You were talking to Jay. :D - (cwbrenn) - Jan. 12, 2003, 04:19:45 PM EST

Nothing to see. Move along. :-) -NT - (Another Scott) - Jan. 12, 2003, 04:21:40 PM EST
