Hi,
I've got the following problem. I use a K7 AMA (1) and tried to upgrade to
an athlon Xp 2600 xp. Recently I'm using an athon xp 1800 which runs ok, but
is not fast enough to work smoothly with bigger photo data.
The problem with the 2600 is that the machine starts - I'm using W2k - but
as soon as I start a programme I get blue screens and total breakdowns. The
temperature of the cpu - bios information - is 68 to 70 degrees celsius.
Is that too high for the 2600 or is the k7 ama not able to cope with the
speed of the cpu? Of course I got the latest bios update (which says 2600 is
okay)
Thanks a lot for any help.
