I have purchased two PCChips M848ALU motherboards, and are having a
problem.
It seems to work OK with an AMD Athlon XP 2100+ processor, but not
with an AMD Athlon XP 3200+ processor.
If I use the 3200+ it will only power on if the jumper (JP1) has been
cleared, and then reset. - It then auto detects as a 1100. I then go
into the BIOS (without making changes), and save settings. - When it
tries to reboot I just get a blank screen.
I have updated the one of the motherboards with the latest firmware,
but still have the same problem. (Although it detects my 2100+ at the
correct speed).
I have tried another 3200+ processor, and I am having the same
problem.
Anyone got any ideas ??
Thanks in advance,
Daniel
