I have looked in other forums and some say I can change multiplier to BELWO default without need to unlock.
True?

How do I change the mulotiplier of m,y XP 2000+ T-bred in BIOS???

Whats the difference between the T-breds and the Palimno´s

Originally posted by blade Neither, towards the rear. :p Sorry, I should have been more clear. Scroll to the bottom here and you'll see what I mean. ;) Woops, when I first installed the heatsink I pushed it close to the rear but not entirely hiding the CPU.... I see that they have done that (the on...

The first is your original shrunk down and the second is resized to 1"x1" (25mmx25mm). I used Paint Shop Pro 7 to resize it.

Thanks!

I want to print a AMD Athlon XP case logo width 25mmx25mm I may resize the image from pixel to pixel, but what is that in mm??? Now the pic is 2030pixels x 908pixels, and I may only resize in pixels so how many pixels is 25mmx25mm??? Is this understandable or do you need the pic itself: http://www.a...

Originally posted by blade Were they suppose to even remove the cpu? If the temps are higher than when you took it to them then I'd remove it to check. And also be sure the sink is pushed more towards the rear. If to far forward it could overhang the front plastic part on the socket. Excuse my engl...

I had left my comp. at service and I got it back yesterday... I had installed a SK-7 on my XP 2000+, but hey, the temps - if I've looked right - is 47C idle!!! hey, the result should be at least 40C idle, did they forget to place paste??? How stupid can they be??? I look in BIOS, and it says various...

Originally posted by blade You sure it's crushed, any visible traces of that? I'd still try to install it again and be sure it's in the socket properly and no pins are bent. I've had some that were picky about that. But yes, do use the pads and be sure the heatsink is pushed to the rear and not too...

When I installed my new SK-7 heatsink I chose not to use the four white foam pads because of some comments of other people... Anyway, my comp. did not work after that. We replaced the mboard, problem remained = it's the CPU. My question is: Is it very easy to crush a core without using the following...

So the story has changed...

Has it?

Originally posted by matt719 I have an experiement you can try. Go rip of your heatsink and fan off of another modern computer. Tell me what happens; it is the same thing as if your heatsink isn't on right :) P.S. I take no responsiblity if you actually take of a heatsink. ;) I don't think there's ...

Originally posted by blade Similar symptems. I knew the cpu worked and was just changing it when testing heatsinks. Perhaps it wasn't making full contact with the pins when I installed it. It happens. Try it an see, it isn't much trouble. But if yours does have cracks and/or a crushed core it may n...
