ok heres my dilema.
I have a ASUS P4T-E MB with the i850 chipset updated to bios version 1007.
I received a P4 2.8ghz Northwood processor with 533mhz FSB for xmas.
the problem is i put the processor in and the bios only reads it as 2.1 ghz.
This was in Jumperfree mode.
I then switched to Jumper mode and changed the DIP switch.
I set the FSB to 100mhz and the clock multiplier to 24.0x, which would make it 2.4ghz, but to no avail it didn't do squat, MB still says 2100mhz(2.1ghz)
I think my DIP switch is toast.
does anyone know how to get it to read 2800mhz(2.8ghz).
Thanks very much if anyone can answer this.
