Hi all,
I have this system now:
Asus a7n8x rev 1.04. BIOS 1007 last nforce drivers
Athlon XP 3000+ FSB 333 + Thermaltake Silent Boost
Two Dimms Samsung DDR333
ATi Radeon 9800 Pro 128 MB Catalyst 4.1
Windows XP on a Seagate SATA driver 120 Gb
2 x Quantum Fireball 40 Gb on Primary IDE
an DVD and CD-WR on Secundary IDE
PWR supply 400W
I changed my Athlon XP 2200 (a very stable system) by an Athlon XP 3000 carefully. I Used Artic Silver 3 (a very thin layer) on my XP 3000.
In the BIOS I changed FSB to 166 (because my XP have FSB 333)
The automatics setings are corrects and it is in accordance with AMD page (2167 Mhz, Clock Mult=13x and voltage=1.65 V)
First problem:
Well, when I played some games (Call of duty, MOHAA) for five o six minutes system Freeze totally. I thinked about catalyst drivers, but I uninstalled 4.1 drivers and I set the 3.10 drivers but the problem is the same. (When I had my system on XP2200, there were no problems)
I opened the case and I unplugged the power cable for the DVD, the CD-RW and the IDE HArd Disks. Just SATA driver working.
I left the case open for a good ventilation, anyway PCProbe marks 43-48 ºC for CPU temperature.
The problem continue again.
I left downloading files from internet because I thinked that problem is about 3d applications, but the next day my PC was frozen again.
Second problem:
Since I changed the processor, when I need boot (when I install a program for example) the system shutdown , the monitor (LCD) light turn ambar but system no reboot, I need press the "Reset" button from the Case for start the system.
When I enter to the BIOS and need exit, system shutdown but no boot (I need press reset button from case).
I listened about some problems with PC2700 and FSB 333 with Memory Crucial and somes samsung
¿is it real?
I tested memory with memtest86 and PC froze at 6:05 wall time.
(2171 Mhz
L1 cache 128 K 13320 MB/s
L2 cache unknow
Memory 512 M 1229 MB/s
Chipset
)
Same with Sisoft Sandra standar when I tested the "Cache and Memory Benchmark"
Same when I tested with Windows Memory Diagnostic from microsoft: http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp
However, when i seted FSB to 133 from BIOS, I PASSED all test.
At memtest86 I saw this (FSB 133) :
1737 Mhz
L1 cache 128 K 10656MB/s
L2 unknow
Memory 512M 983 MB/s
Chipset
My TºC: from BIOS with FSB to 166:
Motherboard :26ºC
CPU: 45ºC-46ºC-47ºC-46ºC-47ºC
Voltages:
VCore Voltage: 1.69 - 1.71
+3.3V Voltage 3.24 - 3.26
+5V Voltage 4.91 - 4.94
+12V 12.35-12.41
Please help me if you can, I will be very grateful of you.
PD: Sorry my english please.
