Hi all
I've done some searching on forums, and it seems this is a fairly common problem, but the solution offered only has limited success.
My athlon2000 runs at 1.26mhz instead of 1.65mhz, and the advice is to change the FSB to 133 from the 100 it runs at. If i do this i do indeed get the 1.65 i should, but then if i try to play a game my monitor blacks out? The computer is still running properly as i can hear the audio for the game running ok, i just have no monitor.
Other specs -
Gigabyte GA-7DXE mobo
Asus 5200fx 128mb g/c
768mb ram (1x256mb 2100, 1x512mb 2700)
I do wonder if the fact i have two types of ram figures in the problem, as CPU-Z shows the 2100 ram with 100/133 frequency and the 2700 ram with 100/166 frequency?
