hey,
My computer is not so new,
-asus A7V motherboard
-384mb 133mhz sdram
-1000Mhz Athlon thunderbird
-20gb quantum fireball
-asus v7700 gforce 2GTS 32mb
heres my problem, For the longest time i have been running the computer just fine with default settings, and everything was fine, till one day out of the blue the damn thing boots up at 800mhz... So i fiddled with the settings (which i know VERY well) and nothing would work... so i just left it for a while, because i didnt really care that much! But to my suprise a week later it started running at 1000mhz again all on its own with no tweaking! this was fine untill recently when it happened again... back to 800! so now im getting royally pissed ! Back a year ago or so i tried to overclock it because that was the big thing with these chips (still is by the looks of it!) and i did the old pencil on the chip trick and it more or less didnt do much.. i had a pretty unstable chip we will say... so i set all the motherboard switches back to defaults and left it to be! then about a year later is when all this stuff started happening!!! It's an underclocking mystery......
can anyone help me??
much appreciatted
