Restoring an AMD Athlon CPU
Hello,
I need some help restoring my AMD Athlon to its original state after being (I think) overclocked/tampered with by its former user. These are my processor specs: A1100AMS3B ASHHA013OUPGW 96774450138 (C)1999 AMD Athlon 0.18um 1100 MHz Package CPGA 1.75V 95 Celsius 256kb cache 2 System Bus Speed 200Mhz There are groups of little gold connectors pairs on top of the AMD. Some have been bridged with a pencil mark, others (I presume) have been un-bridged by a very shallow cut. How do I a) find the original configuration for my CPU? b) unbridge two connectors connected with a pencil mark? c) re-connect two connectors? Thank you in advance for your patience. O. Minot |

Some have been bridged with a pencil mark, others (I presume) have been un-bridged by a very shallow cut. im guessing the "pencil trick" as its called is on the L1 bridges? the shallow cut is normal.... AMD Athlon 0.18um 1100 MHz Package CPGA 1.75V 95 Celsius 256kb cache 2 System Bus Speed 200Mhz you just need to set the cpu up for 11x100(200) = 1100 and 1.75volts, thats if the motherboard isnt autodetecting them correctly. It should still detect the default multiplyer of 11, but it will be unlocked by the "pencil trick" -- ______ From Adam Webb, Nick: Overlag |

Minot The chances of restoring it the origional state without breaking it is fairly low. Leave it as it is and clock it normally if you dont wish to overclock it. hamman |

"Florian M." wrote in message om... a) find the original configuration for my CPU? Go he http://www.ocinside.de/html/workshop...resistors.html Select the default VCore for your CPU (1.75V) and the default multiplier (11xFSB). Make not of the connections that are displayed. This is the "original" configuration. b) unbridge two connectors connected with a pencil mark? Try an eraser? c) re-connect two connectors? Try a pencil? Conductive pen would be best, though. I actually once got away with "writing" with a piece of copper wire. |
