what have you managed on this board ?
AMI bios 07/29/2003 recognises cpu as an mobile AMD Athlon XP-M 2500+ at 133fsb
6 x 310.9 = 1865 mhz v=1.58

will update when I change bios to latest

can't change anything in bios at moment i think its corrupted (?) results in 3 long beeps if i do :S

any help/hints someone ?

thx

The Mobile Barton Chip? Sounds either the mobo does not like the mobile lines or indeed a foofed-up bios. Tries flashing the CMOS yet?

update:

can load winxp @165fsb not 166 :( with 1.675v in bios (max)not stable with prime95 or 3dmark :S




going to look for a voltage mod with a resistor of 18k or 50k on an ic

or wil socket mod with strands of wire unlock 1.7-18v for cpu ?

one reply :) to post............. if you read this any feed back negative or positive is welcome .

thx
