December 22, 201014 yr Bust out the floppy drives and hope your windows floppies haven't decayed? Worst part is installing 3.1 on a 486 is faster then installing win7 on a core2duo.
December 22, 201014 yr okay flashed to no cpc in abit flash utility. it went fine rebooted and got into bios and saw new choices including multi adjust. I got excited and set multi to 13 and rebooted. now no post whatsoever. I killed it I think. Im such an idiot. tried removing batt and different ram in separate channels and no go.
December 22, 201014 yr Crew Clear CMOS. Appears that your CPU has a locked multiplier and no boot is one of the way the system acts when you try to change the multiplier. The other is - ignores and loads with it's default.
December 22, 201014 yr Don't worry, you can't kill it this way, afaik. Clear CMOS with the jumper located near the battery or just hold Delete button and power up the system. The second one should keep your settings in bios, but boot with defaults. My NF7-S v.2 also acts weird sometimes. Edited December 22, 201014 yr by I.nfraR.ed
December 22, 201014 yr Okay I'll give it a go tonight after work. thanks guys. There might be light at the end of the tunnel.
December 22, 201014 yr Crew Usually hardware isn't so easy to kill. The only exception is the BIOS on Gigabyte boards that can die without any reason
December 22, 201014 yr well if youve had the luck ive had with hdwr in this contest you would think the same thing. Its not working dudes. Im gonna pull the cpu out and reseat everything. ******* I took everything off and cpu looks fine. Not sure what it is. what is the best ram slot to trouble shoot on? Ive been using one stick by the cpu. Edited December 22, 201014 yr by trans am
December 31, 201014 yr Congratulations Team OCX. Nice runs. We will meet again, I'm sure. ~Team CP Edited December 31, 201014 yr by Mr.Scott
January 1, 201114 yr Congrats to team OCX for the win and to H.O.T. for a strong showing at the end - It's too bad only one could win since every team that competed was deserving but that's how it goes. I too would like to see more of these comps done - Had fun doing it and looking foward to competing in the next one.
January 1, 201114 yr Happy New Year to all. This was a great ompetition. Congrats to team OCX and to all other teams! Edited January 1, 201114 yr by egm_xt
January 1, 201114 yr I like last minutes action , good job Team OCX & Hellas Overclocking Team it's make my team, AwardFabrik & XtremeSystems have same point 15. Very impresive result from Stelaras.... You're a dangerous man :Thumbs up: --=== Happy New Year 2011 ===-- Viva Old Skool Socket never die
January 1, 201114 yr This was a great challenge. We would have a better chance if socket 7 was included. I have just got a "brand new" GA-5AX and a k6-2+/550 Edited January 1, 201114 yr by egm_xt
January 1, 201114 yr Had a blast benching old hardware and competing against you guys. I'm looking forward to next classic competition. Happy New Year Everyone!
