Hi,
I just bought an Asus A7N8X 2.0 Deluxe w/BIOS rev1005 installed, and an AMD Barton 3000+. My problem is that the post and everything else keeps telling me I have a Barton 2800+ installed! The cpu fsb is set to 166 and the multiplier is 12.5 and there is not an option to go higher than 12.5. Am I doing something wrong or did those !!!!@#%^#%$ send me the wrong cpu? How can I tell which cpu I have by reading the serial number on the chip? Thanks in advance to anyone who will help.

Look at your CPU, the OPN for 3000+ should be something like AXDA3000DKV3D. If you got AXDA2800DKV3D, you get 2800+ instead.

If I agree with you... will you shut up?
