CPU broken?

[Guest]

Hi,

yesterday crashed my motherboard. And the PC did not start anymore.
Then I tested my AMD Athlon XP Barton 2600+ in another system.
This system has a MSI KT3 Ultra2 which supports Bartons upto 3000+ Mhz.
So I adjusted the multiplikator to 11,5 and the Vcore to 1,65 and the FSB to 166. Then I had to reboot. But the PC did not start again. A few trys later and the PC startet but it freezed after the memory check. So I could not boot to OS. So I reseted the bios and clocked the CPU down to ~1,8Ghz. Then I came to the bootscreen but then a Bluescreen and reboot. Then the PC did not start again. I have changed the RAM a few times, the Powersupply and and and, but nothing worked...

When I put my 1,7 Mhz Athlon on it everything worked perfectly.

Is my CPU broken now?

kind regards,

Andé

Try one of the test suites that comes in UBCD http://www.ultimatebootcd.com like Memtest86+ or cpuburn

Eeeeeuuuuuuummmmmmmm............just a guess here....

Did you not notice something anyone?.....


The AMD Athlon XP Barton 2600+ Has a FSB of 333mhz, not 266mhz ! So clocking this at only 166mhz would render unstable !!!

Mind you, they did make a 266mhz version, but I doubt its the one you have since its mutiplier would be 15x not 11.5x(the 11.5x is for the 333FSB Barton).

Check your number----> Barton (333FSB) 11.5x AXDA2600DKV4D

----->Barton (266FSB) 15x AXDA2600DKV4C
