Wont Detect Athlon 1800

[Tormentor]

When i go into AIDA32 and system in the control panel it says im running a athlon 1600 xp when i have a 1800 xp. What is wrong?

[kazaaliterock]

is your fsb setting correct? or your multiplier

[Tormentor]

Whould resseting my CMOS turn them to default?

[Evil Gemini]

No dont reset to default because the mulitplier might be to high at dedault.

check you multiplier as kazaaliterock mentioned.

[Mr. Elmo]

if you reset it to default, i dont htink that the multiplier would be set too high....i though it was the cpu that determind your multiplier number.

[Evil Gemini]

Im guessing the multiplier would be to high because maybe the bios is set for a slower CPU.

But it could automatically adjust it.

Might look into this i would like to know actually :)

What motherboard do you have? maybe it only supports up to an XP 1600+. My shuttle board will only support an XP2400+ but if I overclocked my XP2200+ past the point of it being an XP2400+ it would still only call it an XP 2400+.

You may need to do a BIOS update.Che ck with your mobo manufacturer and see if there is a revision that will make it support different cpu's

My mother board supports more than a 1600 i used to have a 2100 in here and it worked fine.

A 2100+ has showed up as a 2100+?

Would that be "Mom's" 2100+?

Why did you switch back?

[Tormentor]

Ok since no one has any idea of what the hell im talking about here it is, i have the 1800 in my computer now and it only shows it as a 1600. And why mother board supports more then a 1800

[clocker]

I am guessing that your best bet is to go into BIOS and reset your FSB and multiplier setting to whatever a 1800+ is supposed to run.

[Tormentor]

were can i find what the 1800 is supposed to run at?
