[sadako]

Hi,

First, sorry for my english..

Second :

I have a Asus A7N8X-VM/400 with a Athlon 1600+ with Ubuntu 6.10 (is working very good)
And recently i try to put an Athlon XP-M 2800 on this configuration, but the CPU stay @800Mhz.

The CPU

Is a Hardware or Software problem ?

If i can't put the Athlon XP-M 2800 on the Asus A7N8X-VM/400, can you say me what motherboard i can use for the CPU ?

Thanks a lot

Maybe your BIOS doesn't recognize the CPU and doesn't set correct bus speed and clock multiplier... Try to set bus speed and multiplier manually in the BIOS.

That my problem, i have the last Bios release, and for this MotherBoard, i can't change anymore...

So thank you .

Try to use this program to set Athlon XP-M multiplier from Windows:

As for the motherboard - I've read that many people use Abit NF7/NF7S with Athlon XP-Ms, I don't know if that board supports XP-M 2800+ or not.
