I kind of have a long story but I will try and make it short and sweet! I originally bought a amd 2200, I think the company did a bait and switch and gave me an amd 1400. I have been using it for about a year at 1333 mhz. Then i went out and bought a game that requires at least 1.4 ghz so I tried overclocking the amd 1400, I really don't know what I am doing as I have never tried to overclock. I chose a high performance setting and it automatically gave me the best settings I could get, now the machine is unstable and locks up 5 seconds into the computer getting to the desktop. I tried to reset the jumpers to get it back to the 1333 mhz but now all it reads is 1733 mhz. So the only thing I could think of was to go out and get a better processor, which I did. I bought an amd 2800 barton and should arrive today. My question is what did I do to my computer and is there a way I could save the processor and does anyone think that putting in a better processor will help my situation?

I went into Bios and went into advanced chipset and changed the setting from auto to high performance. It went from 1333 mhz to 1733 mhz, I realized that the machine was not running stable so I reset the jumpers and everything went back to default but the mobo is still seeing the processor at 1733 mhz on auto with a fsb at 100 mhz, the dram setting is on spd at 200 mhz. I can't get the mobo to go back to the original setting of 1333 mhz when it was stable. I did a system restore and it still didn't work.

Are you talking about the memory timings. I don't even know waht to change in there so I leave that alone but everything else is on auto and the fsb is set at 100 mhz, the lowest setting I can go but the mobo is saying that I have an amd 2100+ and I can't go in there and change it. Does that make sense.

From what I said in my other posts, would it be a good idea to upgrade the processor and hopefully it will run stable.

chewie, I know you changed the jumpers, but did you clear the CMOS? there should be a flat battery that looks like a coin on the mobo. remove it for a couple minutes, then put it back in. Everything should go back to default settings.
