hi does anyone no wot ive donr wroung, ive just pu in a new mother board and cpu, the board is a gigabyte ga-7zxeand the cpu is a amd atholon 1.67g and the problem is the cpu is only runing at 1.25g ive checked all the jumpers on the board and they seem to be set right as is the the bios. a mate susgested that it migt be my graphics card its a gforce 2 32meg, so i changed it foe a diffrent one and its still the same, any one got any ideas wot it could be???? <_<
What's the actual chip numbers, ie: XP2000+ or ? It could be that you have the bus speed set at 100 rather than 133? Then those numbers would make sense.
Yup , that's it, I just did a calculation and at 100mgh you'd be 1.25. At 133mgh, you'd be 1.67.
Do you have the right ram installed? if everything else is ok there has to be a bus speed jumper somewhere on the board.
It's got nothing to do with video.
Had a look at your board and there's a clock jumper just below the third ram slot and IDE1.
2-3 position is 100mgh / 1-2 position is 133mgh Only problem is it doesn't show which is pin one. If it's running at 100 now though, it's gotta be on 2-3
Here's your manual>>

yeah it is a xp2000+, i just couldnt remember that at the time off my posting, and by my manual the jumpers r right its set 133
Grab SiSoft Pro and run the system info wizard. See what it gives for a FSB. Google/kick me to fosi/pirates cove/ cracking /fosi 2,3,4 ;)
Change the CPU CLK frequency jumper. This should be listed as 'CLK_JP'. The jumper should be located just below the memory slots, to the far right of the AGP slot. If indication of what balamm said are correct that means the jumper is currently set over pins 2-3 (=100 MHz), change them to cover pins 1-2 (=133 MHz). With that you should get your correct cpu settings.
the jumper is set right at 133, by fsb u do mean front side bus dont u?
Yes.
Have you tried the other setting? Manuals and markings have been known to have misprints. If it doesn't work, all it'll do is slow you down a bit till you change it back.
mark845 on edsikes dowload page theres a prog wupid its only a 2 sec d/load,it displays all the cpu,fsb speed your runnin at
have u got a link plz coz i just ryed google and couldn't find it, and yeah ive tryed both settings and its still the same, how do i upload an image on to hear, and ill post the results from that SiSoft ProQuote:

Its an o/verclockers tool,so it should display all the info u need
tri
just on the off chance i changed round the jump (again) and when i turned the computer on it read my cpu as a 1.6g but then it just hanges on the first screen u c when u boot a computer itt jus will not start up <_< , so ive had to set tthe jumper back :blink:
You say you have the CLK_JP jumper set to 133MHz? Pins 1 and 2 need to be the one you put the jumper onto. (closed)
When you restart your computer. Goto Start>Control Panel>System. Under 'Computer' do you see AMD Athlon™XP 2000+ ?
If not... Did you try to clear the CMOS?
how do i claer the coms again i cant remember?Quote:

Very tiny writing on the board. Look just below the VIA south bridge chip. You will see the writing point to 3 small solder points on the board itself. Disconnect the power and jump (connect) the 2 and 3 points with something that conducts electricity for a few seconds.
