K7T 266 PRO2 will not recognize xp 1700+

Hello
I have a K7T 266 PRO2 version 2 that has been flashed to the latest bios for that board.It should see up to a 2200+ xp processor.The board has been running a 900 thunderboard processor for 5 years now.
I did change the bios to 133 but it still does not see the xp 1700+  .  I do not see a jumper on the board for this so it must be changed in the bios.Any idea guys.This crap is  frustrating .

someone who is ready to shoot this board.

Is the 1700 a Palomino core or a Thoroughbred core cpu.  Check the OPN number on the cpu against the chart in this link.  Only the Palomino core will work.

Did you clear the cmos before trying to boot with the new processor?
What are the specs for the memory in the system?

  • K7T 266 Pro2 (6380 V3)

    Three months ago I bought a K7T 266 Pro2 mobo.  When it arrived I thought great as it was the latest version - Ver3.
    The is a minor problem with the sound, so I downloaded the latest drivers, but when it came to updating the bios, I realised the board is not supported by MSI.  
    In fact I have not seen anyone post a question about the 6380 V3. Is there anyone out there with the same Mobo as me?  Does anyone know if MSI intend to put it one their wesite?
    Thanks.

    afaik, this board the K7T266 Pro2 (Ms-6380 Ver 3) is in fact a MSI board not a OEM as one (or two) reader(s) suggested.  My imagination tells me that this model was made in only small numbers as a possible kt266a version of the old MS6380LE, that is only my guess though.(The board sports the same boring old green colouration that the LE sports, rather than the expected red of the other K7TPRO2 boards).  I've also imagined that the production run was halted (maybe because of newer technology?) , and now we have a few 'lucky' owners out there with this board.  
    I, too, have not been able to upgrade the bios, it is currently running nicely with Award PG 6.0 which currently supports everything I have thrown at it.
    The good news is that it is a KT266a chipset not the older KT266 that is one thing in it's favour.  As to support from MSI, I also have had difficulty locating any information about it.
    btw....I have just sold this mobo, as I have bought myself a new SOYO dragon Plus to play with.
    Good luck getting some support for this board!!

  • Early k7t-266 pro2-ru XP snafu

    guess there's no avoiding saying that I'm new here in this forum, so there.
         Anyway, I have a k7t-266 pro2-RU, one of the first boards that came out here in the Philippines, so it is definitely one of the early revs of this product.  I've had it for about a year, and had no problems with it.  It has the most recent bios version dated March, 2002.
         My problem now is that it seems to break any Athlon XP CPU that I plug into it.  I've tried clearing bios, made sure that there's no special adjustment I need to do, whether jumper or bios based, made sure that the heatsink is seated properly every time,and generally tried every damn thing I could think of.  I've had no luck, so I'm running an Athlon 900 while I try to figure this out. (yes, the board works with non-XP cpu's)
         I'd greatly appreciate any help from this forum.  I've been thinking along the lines of a voltage problem or just the fact that the board is an early sample... please help, I'm becoming desperate...

             I removed all the drives and other peripherals until all that was connected were the board, mem, cpu, fan, vidcard, modem, keyboard and a case fan.  My power supply is an enermax 350 dual fan, so there shouldn't be any prob there...
            Changing the FSB in Bios was one of the first things I tried to do, wonkaboy, but the CPUs break before I can even hit "Del" and enter bios, and besides, I'm pretty sure k7t266 pro2 ru has auto settings for FSB...
             I appreciate the help, I'll keep trying on this side, hope I don't fry any more cpu's.fortunately, I work at a computer shop so it's pretty easy for me to have a non-physical damaged CPU replaced.
    Any other suggestions will elicit another long winded reply from me. mbe I shud change my handle to longwind...

  • Driver K7t 266 pro2

    Hi,
    I have a slight problem. I had to fomat my harddisk, and so ofcourse lost all the drivers on it. That wasn't the problem. However I seem to have lost both the box and the CD of my K7t 266 pro2 Via k7226a amdxp. Because of the drivers on the internet, everything works fine, exept the onboard sound ;( . I think I may have used the wrong driver for this. Can anyone tell me where I could find the right driver? Because I'm not to experienced (in computers) and I get a bit mixed up in the drivers mentioned. So any help would be appreciated. Thanx )

    Hello:
    This is not an area I have much experience in......I rarely insert DVDs and I have never had a similar problem.
    When the DVD is in the drive (and DVD players is open) click on File>get disk info.

  • TS1363 my computer will not recognize my iphone

    My iphone has been working fine with my computer.  After I did an update for itunes today, the phone froze up  and will not work at all.  It has a picture stating to connect it to itunes, which it is.  The itunes will not recognize the iphone now. help!

    Phone not recognised in itunes
    device not recognised by iTunes on PC  or  device not recognised by iTunes on Mac
    Some of those things which concern itunes also help with your problem.  In particular try rebooting the computer, try a different USB cable to attach the phone or try a different port

    It got A new router today and wanted to turn on apple tv but my remote app on iPad and iPhone will not recognize apple tv. Btw- I do not have apple tv remote.

    It reboots it but unplugging can also rectify communication issues like this. A restore would be the next step.

  • Solution center will not recognize J4680 in wifi

    My J4680 will print a document in wifi so I know my computer and printer are communicating.  I have reinstalled the software and I am still able to print.  However, when I open HP Solution center to check ink level or scan an item it will not recognize the wifi printer.  It will recognize it as if I have the USB connected.  This defeats the purpose of having wifi options if I cannot communicate with the printer except to print.  I cannot even run diagnositics like cleaning printer heads etc because HP Solution center will not communicate via wifi.  Solutions?

    That link is not working for me at the moment either @judomax , perhaps if you wait it out for a few hours or a day it will be back up and running. It is possible there are changes being made to the page. It would be nice it if said "under construction" or something of that sort, but in the meantime I guess we sit and wait.
    I will keep you posted if the link is no longer valid and the Print and Scan Doctor link changes. I will keep an eye on it.

  • I am trying to hook my macbook pro to a sony bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. The same set up has worked with three other, though different televisions. Any thoughts?

    I am trying to hook my MacBook Pro to a Sony Bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. I have used the same setup with three other TV's, each a different brand with no problem. Any ideas?

    Is the TV set to take input from the HDMI connection?
    On your computer, if you open the Displays preferences and do not see an Arrangement tab (or there is an Arrangement tab that shows only a single monitor) then there is something physically wrong with your connection.  Try clicking Detect Displays just to see if the computer can now sense the presence of the connection.  Check your connections.
    If you do have an Arrangement tab, and it shows two screens, then click Gather Windows to bring the TV's Displays preferences on to your main screen if the TV is not yet showing an image.  Set the proper resolution (probably 720p, 1080i, or 1080p).  Set the refresh rate (probably 60Hz) if that preference is shown.  You should see a picture at this point.  I  recommend turning off mirrored displays if it is enabled.

    I am reading on this site about the error I am getting and it wants me to change some files that I am not comfortable messing with. Mainly because it is like a foreign language. Will the store do this for me or tell me if it is neccessary?

    To sync photos from a Mac or Windows PC to your device using photo applications
    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed.
    In iTunes, select your device's icon in the Devices list on the left.
    Click the Photos tab.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Note: Some versions of Photoshop Album and Photoshop Elements don't support collections. You can still use them to sync all your photos.
    If you want to sync all your photos, enable the option for "All photos, albums, events, and faces." If you want to sync photos from only some albums, events, or faces, enable the option for "Selected albums, events, and faces" and then select the albums you want. If syncing on a Mac with iPhoto version 6.0.6 or later, you may enable the option to "Include videos" to sync videos directly from iPhoto to your device. (Requires iOS 3.0 or later).
    Click Apply.
    To sync photos from a folder on your hard disk to your device
    Drag the images you want into a folder on your computer. If you want images to appear in separate photo albums on your device, create folders inside the main folder and drag images into the new folders.
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    Select Choose Folder from the pop-up menu and choose your main image folder.
    Click Apply.

  • HT4314 Game center will not recognize that I play any game center games.

    Game center will not recognize that I play any game center games. Also, my friends can interact with my game saves, but I cannot, because they do not appear in the "friends/neighbors" window when I play. What can I do to fix this?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
