timmy toad Posted April 15, 2003 Posted April 15, 2003 (edited) hi chaps, i'm glad i found you, because i think my query is easy to answer for you experts LOL. i have an ASUS A7V133-c in jumperless mode, i put in an AMD duron 800 it worked perfectly. i then upgraded it to an AMD athlon 1800+xp and the bloomin thing will only run at the speed of a 1700+xp CPU ????????????/ i did try changing it to Jumper mode and setting 11.5 * 133 but it still didnt go right, possibly worse if anything. i have since read the manual three times from front to back and i wonder should i be changing the voltage as well ??????????/ THE ONLY TROUBLE BEING THAT I DONT KNOW (and cant find out) WHAT THE VOLTAGE SHOULD BE. does anyone here have any ideas, i dont want to try and overclock it yet, i just want it to run at its proper speed. cheers chaps tim Edited April 15, 2003 by timmy toad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_189 Posted April 16, 2003 Posted April 16, 2003 Well This is my guess the multiplier is not set on the default 13x. So when ven though you have the default fsb of 133mhz ur multiplier is not on the default setting which may cause the cpu to only run at the speed of an 1700+. Also the default Vcore voltage is usually 1.6-1.65. only increase the voltage for o/c. Also whne you say ur changing the jumper. Wat jumpres are you fiddling around wid?? beacuse ther are like 3-5 jumpers on an average board... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3bruts1d Posted April 16, 2003 Posted April 16, 2003 The A7V133-C is a Thunderbird/Duron motherboard and only supports processors from 550Mhz ~ 1.3Ghz, so I'm suprised it even ran at the 1.47Ghz (1700+ speed). Doesn't look like any of the latest BIOS revisions for that board would help either. As far as the default voltage, it shouldn't matter what your voltage is set to, I've run mine when not OC'd on the lowest setting available with my board, to as high as possible with my board when OC'd. Dave: The default multiplier for the AMD XP 1800+ is 11.5. ---- 11.5 x 133.33 = 1.53 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
