XP2400 recognised as XP2700; tried fsb133 doesn't work

MB: KT4V
Chip: XP2400
Memory: 1x 256mb 2700 266mhz
Heatsink: correct and applied correctly with white paste running under 50C
OS: Window 2000 Pro
Problem: Computer unstable when being pushed (running several programs at once, high quality video, etc) and on startup CPU stated as XP2700 with FSB at 100 and ratio on auto.
Hi Guys,
Now i've read the FAQs and Troubleshooting posts and pages back to front several times, have searched the forums and read at least 10 large threads on 2400 chips not set up properly and i am aware of the following:
Solution 1: Set your FSB to 133 and ratio to Auto
Solution 2: Set at a lower FSB speed such as 120 and put up with a slower pc with more stability
Solution 3: Cool your CPU correctly
Solution 4: It's a Powersupply problem
Solution 5: set your dram speed to 266
as well as some others.
Now i've set it to 133 and auto and it wouldn't boot.
I've set it to 120 and it wouldn't boot.
CPU is fixed on properly with correct heat sink and paste and is not over heating.
Tried dram speed at 266 and it wouldn't boot.
Also none of the threads i could find, did anyone say it was running at 2700 and booting, it was always something like 1800.
Possible they have supplied me with an XP 2700 by mistake? If so, why is it still crashing when pushed or when it feels like it?
I don't mind reading another thread linked to, but i have tried my best to search it, and please don't tell me to just read the FAQs and stuff as i have.
Cheers

Cris,
Only 100% way to check your processor model is to remove the heatsink and grease and then note the numbers and letters. (Remember to regrease)
Then go to http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/TechnicalResources/0,,30_182_9417,00.html where you will find pdf's explaining the code letters. The speed is obvious though being the four numbers.
There are three versions of the XP2400, all should use a 133 FSB, but one uses a different VCore. Bear in mind the 2400+ label is just that - the actual operating speed is 2000Mhz. Again the AMD site explains all of this.
If it is a XP2700+ this would be using a 166 FSB (or should be)
Hope this may help, back to my own problem now on the kt6lsr forum

    No. That's not what I said. You can get an out of warranty replacement, which will be exactly the same model, color, and will be locked in exactly the same way the original is. If you want an iPhone 5, get the 4S replaced, sell it, and use the money to put toward a new phone.

  • Airport Express/Windows XP - Tried everything, doesn't work

    I'm trying to connect my windows XP machine to my airport express network. I've tried all the suggestions in http://tech.ifelix.net/2002.html and it still doesn't work. I can see my network but when I click on it, it tries to connect for about 30 seconds and then just gives up. I'm using a WPA password format, mostly because I couldn't figure out the WEP conversion. Settings include:
    Association: correct network name shows, Network Authentication: WPA-PSK (I've tried just WPA, same issue), data encryption: TKIP (tried AES, same issue).
    Authentication: Nothing checked, entire window greyed out
    I'm kind of at the end of my rope at this point. The PC connects to wireless networks outside of my house so I know it works, just not with my Airport Express. I also installed the AE software and it doesn't even detect my base station. When I click on AE Assistant, I get an error message that says "The AE Assistant found that Windows is not allowed to manage wireless networks on this computer. This can be as a result of having a 3rd party utility that manages wireless networks. For best results please allow Windows to manage wireless networks." What does this mean?
    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    That message you received "The AE Assistant found that Windows is not allowed to manage wireless networks on this computer. This can be as a result of having a 3rd party utility that manages wireless networks. For best results please allow Windows to manage wireless networks" usually means theres another software program managing how your pc connects to wireless networks. For instance with each copy of Windows XP theres a built in wireless utility called Windows Zero Config or WZC. This is a really basic interface that simply shows the signal and what networks are with in range of your computer. When you purchase another wireless card or if your computer/laptop comes with wireless network card sometimes the manufacter will create a custom utility for it providing you extra features. For example my HP laptop has a netgear wireless card and the netgear software provides more information of wireless networks in range of you and more customizable settings for the wireless connection where as WZC does not.
    You usually can turn this off in the 3rd party utility or by right clicking on wireless icon in the lower right hand corner of the screen (usually a computer monitor icon with waves coming off of it) and choose the option view available wireless networks. There you would see a star icon that says manage wireless network settings if i remember (been awhile since ive looked at it) and from there you should see a check box that says allow windows to manage wireless networks. This once checked will allow the airport express software to manage wireless settings.
    After this is done you could try hard resetting your AEX and reconfigure it from the pc computer and insure your able to connect to it wirelessly. Then once thats done just connect the other computers to it.

  • Songs replays over and over, tried restoring doesn't work.

    With my new iPod shuffle sometimes it replays songs and I had to skip, but then sometimes it can continuously loop the same song over and over.
    I restored my iPod to factory settings, deleted and reapplied the entire library to my iPod and it still does this.
    Anyone else having this issue and can anyone help?

    Restoring my iPod Video doesn't seem to work as every time I restore it, it only continues to ask me to restore over and over again to no avail.
    Hi GenericUsername,
    It sounds like you might be having a issue of drive letter confusion here.
    Try assigning your iPod a different drive letter, by following the instructions from this Knowledge Base article, here:
    Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive
    Also, you could try reformatting your iPod in FAT32 format, followed by a restore in iTunes, by following these steps:
    1 - Connect your iPod to your computer.
    2 - When iTunes has finished syncing with your iPod, open "My Computer".
    3 - Right-click on your iPod, and click on "Format". (If your iPod is not showing in My Computer, make sure that disk use is enabled in iTunes).
    4 - Here, verify that your formatting settings are "Default", with the format type set for FAT32. Also, make sure that "Quick Scan" is not selected.
    5 - Then, click on "OK" to begin the formatting process.
    6 - When this is complete (it might take a while), make sure to restore your iPod in iTunes again, so as to properly reload the firmware back onto it again.

  • I updated to Firefox 4 and ever since it won't open. It says the process is running but no matter how long I wait it won't open the browser and restarting or ending the process and trying again doesn't work either. Is there any way to fix this?

    I thought it might be a compatibility issue with Windows Vista but the same problem happened on a computer with Windows 7. I'm not sure if the Windows 7 problem was resolved, though.

    You probably have other problems but for a start right click on your task bar and click on Start Task Manager. In "Applications" if Firefox is shown, click on "End Task". In "Processes" if Firefox.exe is shown, click on "End Process" and ignore the warning and click"End Process" again. Wait for a few seconds then start Firefox in the usual way. There is a chance that this may solve your problems.
    If not, you probably will need to do a complete uninstall and re-install. If you can't start Firefox you could try starting in Safe Mode - Hold down Shift key as you double click on the Firefox icon>ignore the page that opens>and Continue. If you've been able to open Firefox you could work through this Troubleshooting Procedure -
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting%20extensions%20and%20themes
    If at any stage you are not making progress, report back here for best advice on an Uninstall/Re-install which is quite likely to be necessary.

    Lightroom 5.7.1, Yosemite OS X - Synchronise Folder function doesn't work in Lr.
    Is there a compatibility issue? I can see the folders/images in Finder but when trying to synchronise folders in Lr it does not recognise that there are any images and therefore unable to import to catalogue. Anyone has any idea how to make it work. Thanks a lot.

    Hi Elba,
    Thank you very much for your reply. Not sure, however, that we are talking about the same problem.
    I am trying to perform the same function in Lr that I have been doing for many years in the past and has only been a problem in the last few days (possibly coinciding with upgrading to Yosemite, trying to find out whether that is the problem)
    I am not intending to sync any files with Creative Cloud but only trying to use 'Synchronize Folder' function in Lr. Normally, I would right click on a particular folder in Lr catalogue and click on that function to check that the Lr Catalogue is perfectly matching my drives where the original photos are actually stored.
    The problem that I only started to encounter is that I can see the files on the actual drives but they do not appear in my Lr Catalogue and they are completely invisible to Lr. I simply can not get Lr to recognise them and then import them to catalogue.
    If for example, I export images to Ps and then save and close them, they do appear on my drive but are invisible to Lr and I can't get them imported into the catalogue. Import to folder also not producing any results as they are still invisible to Lr.
    Completely baffled by it. Any idea what could be the reason?
    Kind regards,
    Nik

  • IMessage doesn't work after changing the sim. New number isn't even recognised.

    I changed my sim from a German to a French one and the card is already active and calls are possible, but iMessage doesn't work. The new number is not recognised and iMessage cannot be activated.
    I tried to switch it off and and and I reset the network, but nothing. I even removed the card a few times, but no change.
    How can I make it work?

When I set it like that, the SD channel I'm on will then stretch to fill the screen (and the black bars disappear as they should). But when I change the channel and go to another SD channel, the black bars are back. Or if I enable the SD Override and then turn the TV off, it will be disabled once I turn the TV on again (and the black bars are back).
    It seems like the SD Override isn't holding. I don't want to have to hit the # button on the remote to change the aspect ration every time I change the channel. The SD Override should work and stay enabled once set. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Hi, I am wondering why my iphone won't send pictures through messages, I have MMS on and I have tried sending it with 3G on aswell and still doesn't work. Someone please help me :)

    Hey lozza567,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues sending MMS messages. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    Issues with sending and receiving MMS
    You will need these to send and receive MMS:
    - An iPhone 3G or later.
    - iOS 3.1 or later.
    - A cellular data connection. MMS isn't available if you are using only Wi-Fi.
    - A domestic MMS plan from your cellular provider. You may need an international messaging plan to send MMS to an international contact. Contact your carrier for more information.
    - A roaming MMS when using a cellular provider's network different from your billing cellular provider's network. Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps first
    1. Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
    3. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
    4. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you are roaming on a cellular provider network different from your billing provider's network.
    5. Verify that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar at the top left of your iPhone.
    6. Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
    7. Verify that you can send and receive SMS. If you are unable to send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above.
    8. MMS may not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
    9. Restart your iPhone.
    10. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    11. Reseat your SIM card.
    If you are still unable to send or receive MMS, follow these steps
    1. Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn on group messaging if you are sending a group message.
    3. Make sure that you are using the area code with the contact's phone number. When sending messages internationally, you also need the contact's international code.
    4. Verify a "Pay as you go" MMS plan has enough available balance. Contact your carrier if unsure of your MMS plan or available balance.
    5. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    6. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact from the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    7. Back up and restore your iPhone as new.
    8. If your carrier has recently ported your phone number, the porting process may not be complete. Contact your carrier to confirm that the porting process is complete.
    9. Contact your carrier to verify that you are provisioned to send SMS and are in an area with cellular coverage.
    10. Contact your carrier to verify that there are no blocks or filters placed on your wireless account preventing you from sending SMS.
    11. Your carrier may require APN settings to be modified to use MMS. Learn more about when you should adjust APN settings.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
