markinIreland Posted November 20, 2006 Posted November 20, 2006 Hi there Im selling some old cpu's, so ive been testing them on my NF2 Board, one is a xp 2200 thats working fine, but I tried running a Duron 800 and the screens black. Are Duron 800's even compatible? Or is it just a faulty cpu? Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrNovi Posted November 20, 2006 Posted November 20, 2006 I've run a 750, 900, and a 950 Duron without problems on an NF2 Ultra Infinity so an 800 should work fine. Just make sure that the fsb is manually set to 100. I had to do that to get mine to boot up as the board wanted to default to 133 with them for some reason.

It wont even boot into the bios, is it worth using my xp2600 that is working fine then booting to the bios and setting the fsb to 100 like you say, then swapping chips? Or am I not thinkin straight Also is there a bios version I should be using to give me a better chance? Thanks again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
