rjz Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Is your fromt side bus jumper set correctly. Also check other jumpers for settings. If this desn't work you might need to update/flash your bios.
MCT Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 ya, just change your FSB settings.. i think thats iti had same mobo (crappy a** 1, id never go back 2) i too had that prob..
At0mic Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 The AMD ATHLON XP 2200+ has a default multiplier of 13.5. Therefore, to run it at its normal speed of 1800MHz (1795.5MHz) you need to set your FSB to 133MHz because 133 x 13.5 = 1795.5At the moment, your FSB is probably set to 100MHz which combined with your 13.5 multiplier setting, gives you just 1350MHz. There's no such thing as a 1350 which is probably why your motherboard detected it as a 1300.Go into your BIOS and set you front side bus (FSB) to 133MHz. Now your CPU will run at its normal speed. If it still detects its name as a Duron, dont worry. The name on the POST screen is just eye candy. Your chip will still work as an Athlon as it still had all its cache.
