Xp3000+ FSB333 instalation?
Hi everyone.
I just installed the above CPU on my Asus A7N8X - Deluxe (V1) - installed it - aok and set to 166 this in BIOS.
This is what it says on system properties:
Unknown CPU Type.
2.17Ghz
Right speed, does it matter that it doesn't recognise the CPU?
Cheers,
Nick

Doesn't updating bios involve a floppy drive? I haven't got one!

Hi Guys,
SOrry that was late night frustration, I didn't give many facts. It was an upgrade from an XP2000+ not a fresh install.
It does appear to be the right speed, although as per usual it hasn't made a blind bit of difference as yet although I haven't done anything that needs major processing.
I do alot of photographic processing on large images, and my machine grinds to a hault with some filters. RAM is what I need the most 512 doesn't seem enough, but a fast processor (or faster) can't hurt!
