Heya, does anyone know any god ways of getting extra performance out of my celeron 400 ? unfortunatele i do not have jumpers on the motherboard and i do not think the multiplyer options on my bios are that good, if there atall any way would be nice add an extra AA battery onto the mobo ? Plugging a U2 CD to something ?? literally i will try next to anything, as long as it doesnt cost me money
i dunno how! i have all the funny options in the bios, but i cant see an FSBV option, i cant see many jumpers on the mobo and the CPU Voltage is (as far as i can see) unchangable. I have a CPU cpaable of 100mhz BUS, its only running at 66mhz however! I dunno also where to find a thing to flash the bios, or even, indeed, if it is flashable. Im looking on motherboards.org for it now, see if i can find out the make. This was just a cheap PC you see when i got it
i use to have a match pair celeron 366@550 running dual celeron on Abit BP6. i used it until last month, b4 i got myself a P4 2G... go to your motherboard's manual maybe you need to get it done by jumper~ at that time, not all motherboard can adjust fsb in bios.
thats the thing, i have no motherboard manual, which i am well pissed off about. I phoned dawoo once and they say "there isnt one included". I dont even know what type of board it is, only that its micro atx with an Intel i440LX Chipset. Grr, its so annoying not knowing any of this stuff, also on the mobo, i cant see any Jumpers which might change the FSB, where would they be ?
I dont have a proper picture of it, but i have a basic illustration of what it looks like. If you would like a little more detail then... Its PCB Green, black serial and parralel connectors. Beige PCI, brown AGP, Beige Socket 370, 2 fair sized metal components in the top left hand side of the board. If you need naything else just ask, but i have been searching for this for a while, Its tough :'(
If you can't oc in BIOS you might try to do it in Windows. CPUFSB, CpuCool and other software let you up the FSB in windows. You only have to know the PLL-IC which is on your mobo. The help files of these progs say how to identify the pll-ic. Had a cel400 a while back, and mine only went up to 500MHz, thats a 83MHz FSB i think. A cel 433 went to the same FSB, no further. It was a crappy intel mobo, so the only settings were 66/83/100 and up in windows. If you're lucky your mobo might support other FSB-s also, but i don't think it would work on 100FSB, too much for the celly. good luck
ill tryu these programs, i hope they do contain info of how to find that, i have never even heard of it before edit: ah, the "clock generator". Still never heard of it but it makes alot more sense to me as that name
I have an IMI SG543DY8 9916 FV825 Which seems to translate to SG 543. However when i click the "get FSB" option, it either says, "cannot" and some garble, or just stops my systm responding! is it meant to stop responding? does it do it for like a few minutes, and then restarts everything and starts up again ? It is DEFINATELE the IMI SG543, I have no doubt it is!
i have a similar issue with a celery 366 on a crappy compaq mobo the stock cooler is crappy and with arctic silver 3 and a semi decent air cooler, how far could i push it
NAILED IT!!! I have a ... Daewoo Model: CB652MLX motherboard If only i could find the website but still, this is a start, a very good one, good but slow (3 years approx )
hmmm, iuve flashed the bios and all semms ok atm but still, it wont seem to get the information from my PLL. It says, and to be precise... "Error reading PLL" "The Frontsize Bus Was Not Changed. Results may be wrong" "The output of the PLL might be wrong. Please set the frequency first." what do i do ? when i try to set the frequncy everything goes pie up!
It's an OEM motherboard, and thus not designed to overclock. 66MHz was the design limit of the 440LX chipset anyway, and it may well not run beyond 66MHz. FSB is the ONLY way to overclock your cpu, but I think you're not going to get anywhere.
sweet mother of god this has only got 1x AGP!!!!!!!!! Damn, i have a geforce2, it must be trying to pull the entire PC along!!!!!! sweet jesus! And damn!!!! Tis a shame, but I am getting a better one this month. Just thought this old baby could still pull a few still, 1x AGP is ridiculous!
Ummm....why? 440LX was the first ever AGP chipset. One presumes that 1X is a reasonable place to start, so why is it ridiculous?
