in control panel,under sytem it doesnt say the name of my cpu it shows a bunch werid letters i was jus wondering if anybody knoes why.. It shouwd say amd athlon 2800+ but it dont it shows some weeird letter and shapes
Sounds like you may have to remove the CPU and re-seat it in the socket.................... What does it display it as if you go into your BIOS? Press del or F1 or F2 to view the BIOS
i presume your computer is a clone not a name brand. as baabaa said above hit the DEL button when it shows up on the post screen(black & white screen).go to the cpu settings section(check manual for proper section as different motherboard manufactures do it differently).CPU speed is cpu bus speed times the multipler(ex. 133x16=2128 or 133x21=2800). try the 133x16 setting first & see what the computer posts at. i have a saying & this is not meant as an insult R.T.F.M.D.(Read The F***ing Manual Dummy).always read your manual first before you do something hardwarewise to your computer.if in doubt ASK.
If that was the case, wouldnt it be more reasoanable to expect that the system wouldnt boot up? And as i said on the other thread --- RTFFR -- read the fusking forum rules. One more case of this and you're a gonner. comprun 1. Grab CPUz (http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php#download) 2. Run it and it will give you the basic outline of information of your system
