Q: (Sorry if a repost) I tried posting this already, but it did not show up so iim tried again)
My reboot randomnly . 977 503 – Normally, I like this diagnosis, but the memory problem. .
I have a
a7n8x deluxe
mobile Barton 2500
and Kingston HyperX 4000
when I first CPU last week . I think
it posted stable@1.65 2GHz or stock voltage (i prime 95d IT)
I tried to push 2.2, and knew it run stably for long .
now Prime95 it when I . it will not run stable at 2.0 or even 1.7 . 1.9
i have to clock at 1.6 in the conduct of prime 95 ok (stress test W / O errors)
Im guess I have a lemon-processor . But it would be something else?
thanks .
Re:You may well have received a "duff" CPU, but if you have overclocked it, then you really shouldn't be trying to RMA it.
Re:hasn't restarted unless i was running at with an "unstable" processor setting
I upped my voltage up to 1.75 and ran it at 1900 it was stable in prime
awful high voltage though to make it stable…
i'm gonna see if it will go up to 2.0 again at 1.75
i'm becoming more convinced i just got a processor that doesn't perform up to what everyone else has been getting
thanks for the input

Re:Try resetting the CMOS jumper and going in from scratch. That way your garaunteed that all settings are back where they should be. ATI drivers could be the culprit too… what version.
Good Luck

Re:What OS are you using?
If Win2k/XP, have you checked the EVENT LOG for a clue?
My guess is it the ATI drivers are causing it…
Re:antec true 380 from my piano sonata
Also have a 9800 pro
dvd drive
and dvdr +-
and 2 80gb wd ide hddrives
some more info:
temps never got above 43 C because of 947u thermal right
plus my mobo has cpu overheating protection
could it be my powersupply?
can't give it the juice?
that might support the randomn restarting…
but my cpu still doesn't pass prime at 1700mhz
One more thing it doesn't post any error messages. No blue screens of death… It just restarts
Re:Your chip should not be the problem. What power supply are you using (brand/model)?
Re:i dont think you can rma a chip that you have willingly overclocked. overclocking voids the warranty on most cpu's. check with the company you ordered from because im guessing you are hosed when it comes to rma'ing a cpu thats been overclocked!
