Hi guys,i have been wondering something....
I have AMD Phenom 550 BE
MSI 785GM-E51
2GB Kingston HyperX 1600MHz
HD4200 (integrated GPU)
And i tryed unlocking the "extra" cores on this cpu but without of luck so far.
Latest Bios 2.10 and nothing OC default settings bla,bla,bla...the thing that i thought just now was,is it my power suply strong enough to boot my pc as a quad core?
What i tryed so far:
1.Setting ACC to Auto and Core unlocking to Enabled - FAIL - No Post
2.Boosting up the voltages for up to 1.4v to cpu voltage - still FAIL - No post
now the PSU apparently is some low of the lowest ones.The Blueberry 450 or even 400w PSU that comes with the case pre-installed and just to clarify the Case + PSU cost about 15 dollars (Euros).

Should he post even with this crappy psu?
I was able to overclock it to 3.8 GHz at 1.4v stable,though not sure i should leave it with unreliable PowerSuplyUnit... :(

I am familiar OC and more advance stuff but when it comes to timings and voltages well we can say i am kinda a noob about it.
So here are some info about bios.
regular options like
FSB Speed
Cpu multiplier
Ram Ratio
Unlock CPU Core Enabled/Disabled
Advanced Clock Calibration Disabled/Auto/All Cores/Per Core
Voltages:
CPU VDD Voltage
CPU NB VDD Voltage
Cpu Voltage
CPU NB Voltage
DRAM Voltage
NB Voltage
HT link Voltage
SB Voltage
Everything is on Auto
