| 173579 | 2003-09-07 04:29:00 | Hi I've got a soltek am m/b and a athlon 1700xp xp cpu, whenever I boot up bios always defaults to it telling me that I have a 1100mhz Athlon chip(when it should be a 1469mhz). AND the other strange thing is I can leAVE all my settings on default and it also tells me that overclocking has failed for some strange reason. Help! Ive spent two sleepless nights reinstalling everything under the sun and it still reads the same. 1700xp soltek 75mrnl m/b 768ddr pc2100 windows 2000 pro sp3 |
