unrecognized processor

[Bruce]

My socket 754 mobo doesn't recognize my amd64 2500, it calls it unknown processor amd hammer family.Does it matter?

Well, it doesn't matter if it boots and runs correctly.

 

[Bruce]

yea it runs fine, just strange it don't recognize it.specially when the sticker on the box says its made for it.lol

I first thought Bios flash, but I have the newest.Plus I hate to flash a new board thats working.

Could be from HT. Guess you could update the bios, if it bothers you and its not from HT but if it runs fine, I wouldn't take the time or risk to do it.

not a problem unless it doesn't recognise and set the cpu settings appropriately.

what? there's an Athlon 64 2500?

I don't think so, maybe an athlon 2500+ but not a athlon 64

 

[Nitestick]
