hondatuner · 12-July-04, 01:06 PM

when switching from a regular processor to a mobile is their anything specical i need to do. i've set my bios back to normal but i can't get it to work. i am running a 2600 XP-M 266fsb and an MSI K7T turbo2

NoSlak · 12-July-04, 01:29 PM

What do you mean you cant get it to work Honda? Does it not post or boot ?
What chip where you using before ?

hondatuner · 12-July-04, 01:33 PM

it was a normal 2600 xp 266fsb. and it acts like the processor is bad. i boot up my computer the light on my monitor turns green meaning its getting a signal then will go back in to power saving

NoSlak · 12-July-04, 01:47 PM

Any beeps ???
I'm sure you cleared the CMOS jumper on your board right ?

EDIT: It is an older board from what I'm seeing, the last BIOS update was in 2002, will the computer b00t with your old chip in it ???

hondatuner · 12-July-04, 02:26 PM

no the old chip is fryed and i don't get any beeps

aaronrkelly · 12-July-04, 03:35 PM

What happened to the old processor??

Its totally probable that the last processor took the motherboad with it when it fried.........can you check it out with a known good chip.

j-dogg · 12-July-04, 04:15 PM

2600 - M = 166MHz chip, if I rememebr the K7T Turbo is only a 133MHz board.

Time for a new board.

hondatuner · 12-July-04, 04:38 PM

its a turbo2 its 266 the place i bought it from said it was a 266 chip

jcarkeys · 12-July-04, 04:56 PM

I doubt your mobo'll support it. It's a different architecture and I'm not sure if the mobo could handle the extra cache. (I'm assuming from T-bird,Pally,Tbred to this).

EIther way, I think a new mobo is in your future

NoSlak · 12-July-04, 05:15 PM

I concur, time for a new mobo man. Even if the chip didn't take out the mobo I dont think it's going to recognize that chip, well it so far is not recognizing it.

hondatuner · 12-July-04, 11:10 PM

the old one got to hot. and if thats the case. then i see ebay as my future sell the old processor and go from their.

NoSlak · 12-July-04, 11:27 PM

Why not just buy a cheap mobo for the CPU.
ANyways if it does go to Ebay come here first !!! I may want it..

NoSlak · 13-July-04, 10:20 AM

hondatuner · 13-July-04, 10:27 AM

NoSlak · 13-July-04, 10:31 AM

Ok, Honda thats alot of cash but you dont need to spend all of that on parts.
Post what you have right now as far as parts go, Case, Psu, yada yada.
Make sure you post everything.

Here is a sweet little mobo for 58 bux.Sweet little mobo
Here is anotehr for $61.00 Another sweet lil mobo
Here is a ton of RAM that you can choose from PC3200 for a 512 stick is all about the same price ton of RAM

BTW I have a stick of PC2700 for sale XMS 512 65 bones shipped but If I was you I'd go with above.
I dont know if you have proper cooling for your case cuz you didnt mention but if you need fans you can prolly find some cheap on this site .
I also dont know what you are cooling your CPU with.
But all this is a good start anyways.
