Thermal compound is alredy on there, and right now the problem is with my XP 2100+ which runs at 1.7-1.8ghz, not 2ghz. The 2400+ and 3000+ I returned and just want my old CPU back to its normal speed until I get a new mobo and upgrade to a Athlon 64. Should I lower the multiplier then?

powerfulsquid

It is on Auto right now which it's always been.

powerfulsquid

Oops, I wrote that it was at 166mhz, it was actually running at 133mhz, but now it won't even run at 133mhz.

powerfulsquid

My mobo is MSI KT4AV series with 1 stick of 256mb PC2100, 1 stick PC21000 512mb and one stick 512mb PC4000. The FSB was and has always been on 133 before I needed to change it, and the multiplier, again, was and always hass been on Auto, so could that still be the problem?

I didn't take the battery ...

powerfulsquid

Anyone? I really need this fixed if anyone could help. Thanks.

powerfulsquid

Hi, well it all started with an AMD Athlon XP "Barton" 3000+ which I had a problem with as described here .

So I returned that, and got this . Same FSB as current 2100+ so it should be all good. I put it in, and the computer spits out beeps...high pitched beep...then a low pitched beep...over and ...

powerfulsquid

I have and it isn't. It reas 1.75ghz when it is suppose to be 2.1ghz. The problem is pretty much solved, which is that I require new memory to get the full 2.1ghz. I may just exchange it for a 266 fsb chip and continue using this memory, or I may hold on to the chip until I get a new mobo and more ...

powerfulsquid

Ohhh..well I found this on my mobo's site http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/ ... 620&kind=1 so I think that I will just switch to the 333mhz CPU and use the ram I got. Is that possible?

powerfulsquid

I just changed to only the PC3200 stick an it still read 2200+ and I changed the FSB to 200mhz x auto and I had to clear CMOS. Instead I was curious what type of RAM is needed for 333mhz FSB chips? Will my PC2100 do, or no? My mobo only supports one PC3200 at a time and I don't want to go out and ...

powerfulsquid

Alright, thanks for the help. I'm going to give it a try now.

powerfulsquid

PC2100 512, PC2100 256, and PC3200 512. Errrr...So what do I have to do to get it to 3000+ ?

powerfulsquid

Well I had it at 166 x 13 and it still read 2200+. I have 3 RAM modules installed, two are PC2100 and the other one is PC3200.

powerfulsquid

I have already cleared the CMOS twice and it did nothing. Changing the FSB to 200 mhz still brought up Athlon 2200+ and a BSOD on the Windows logon screen.

I should also mention that before it was showing me 2200+ it was showing me 1800+ on 133 mhz FSB until I changed it to 166 mhz which was what I ...

powerfulsquid

Hey guys,

Well I recently ordered an OEM version CPU from NewEgg, http://www.newegg.com/app/viewprodu...-103-394&DEPA=0 , an Athlon XP 3000+ Barton.

I got the CPU, and looked at the model # and it indeed had the 3000 within the model number. The problem is when I put it in and loaded the system ...

powerfulsquid

Well, yea, I figured it was the router, because the modem stays connected, but I spent $150 on this thing, isn't there some way I can keep it from causing these short outages?

powerfulsquid

Alright, I've got a problem that has been happening for the past two weeks or so.

I have a Terayon TJ615 cable modem connected to a Linksys BEFSR41 router, which is in turn sharing the modem to 3 PCs, and 1 laptop. One of the PCs is never turned on, but I keep the ethernet connected in case it is ...

powerfulsquid

will do

powerfulsquid

Thanks anyway, but we found a developer already, sorry.

powerfulsquid

hey guys. i came here to see if anyone knows where i can find or buy a script that does the following:

powerfulsquid

my friend had gotten an ati radeon 8500 128mb but he doesnt get above 50fps max in TFC so i don't really think i want to get what. maybe the gf3 ti 64mb which i think is like $180 at best buy.

[edit]
actually its not ti, it uses the ti chip. its official name is VisionTek Xtasy GeForce3 Titanium ...

powerfulsquid

that's what i thought. do you suggest any good ones for $200 or less?

powerfulsquid

ok here's the deal. i have a geforce 2 mx 400,as said in the subject and well, in half-life counter-strike, and team fortress classic i get like 40-50 frames per second on average and it drops to 20 sometimes and i lag. this is with an amd athlon 1.4 ghz, 512mb ddr ram, and soyo k7-ada motherboard ...

powerfulsquid

OK guys, here's the deal. I own an AMD Athlon 1.4 ghz with a Soyo K7-ADA motherboard and 512 MB of DDR ram and a geforce 2 MX/MX 400 64mb

When I had 256mb of ram, and I played Half-Life TFC or DoD, it would freeze up on me alot. When I bought Tony Hawk 3 for the PC, and I served a game, it would ...

powerfulsquid

well..i know what the problem is, but i sort of need to use my router, so i want to be able to use the router, and still send images fine.

as i said, it used to work perfectly, not this.

the cat5 cable from my pc to my router are still good because thats what i used wheni connected it directly to ...

powerfulsquid

OK, well, I connect my compter directly to the modem without the router, sent my friend a few images, and they looked perfect.

Then I plugged it back in, tried, and same problem.

Then I restarted the router, and same problem.

Hope this info helps. It's really getting me mad

powerfulsquid

Thanks man, I'll look into the compressed images in Internet Options but as far as having the latest AIM, they all do, because I asked them.

I also tried reisntalling AIM and that did not work. I'm hoping someone can help me out here.

Also, this has never happend before, I've been using AIM for ...

powerfulsquid

Hey guys. I have a problem with AIM, obviously.
Well, here's what happens.

When I connect with another person on AIM or if I do a 'Send File...' to a friend, something weird happens. If it's a direct connect and I sent an image, the image gets all distorted like scrambled cable but if he sends me ...

powerfulsquid

OK, here it goes.

I've been getting errors in AIM when I send a file to friend.

When we directly connect and send images, the images always get screwed up and look like they are on a distorted cable channel.

When I send through the 'Send File...' option, after it completes, it says ' WHOEVER ...

powerfulsquid

well, my bro wasnt on kazaa and it turned off again. im still unsure what the problem is.

if anyone can help me out, thatd be great.

powerfulsquid

thanks man, i just ran ad-aware and upgraded firmware. hopefully this will work.

we are on cable and the cbale he is using is a good one.

ill see tonight if it worked or not.

powerfulsquid

well, here's my problem. i recently put together my bro's new computer with a built in lan card and now, my internet will stop working, ill have to unplug my router for 10 seconds, then it works fine again.

now, im not sure what the problem is. he's running window 2000 professional and im running ...

powerfulsquid

Well, he just went home so I will have to relay all the messages to him. I'll ask him next time I talk to him what he did. I told him about the other posts so hopefully he will try them when he gets home, if not then I'll tell him to try 'em. Hopefully some of these will work.

powerfulsquid

I remember one of the errors mentioning VxD, and when I looked it up it returned something to do with the C:/Windows directory and the system.ini file. It didn't mention about the CPU temp.

powerfulsquid

The error wasn't a BSOD, it was before Win98 even loaded. I forgot exactly what the error was but I don't believe it has anything to do with the hardware because I searched for a solution and what I had found was that there was something within the Windows directory that was missing so it was ...

powerfulsquid

PSU?

I was using FDISK to try and fix the Win98 error that he kept getting when it loaded up. That was mainly the only utility I used.

powerfulsquid

I should have also mentioned that he formatted before it stopped working because Win98 was giving him an error and we reinstalled it and still gave him the same error so we tried different utilities from DOS but then all of a sudden, it just stopped working when we restarted it. He also has a 500mhz ...

powerfulsquid

OK, here's the deal. My friend's computer has been crap lately. The newest problem is, well..the computer won't startup. All the cables are in right, the power is on and the cd-rom loads up but the monitor stays black. He has a geforce 2 and we tried putting the monitor on that and the built in VGA ...

powerfulsquid

thanks man. im glad someone else who has had a controller card and has had the same problem was able to fix it, looks like theres hope for me after all.

ill try that driver reinstallation and then if it persists check for some software conflicts.
