hi, i just got my new nf7-s rev 2.0. I installed everything properly and started up. Seemed fine, i pressed delete and went into the bios to check the settings. In the soft menu, it said the current cpu was athlon xp 1100 mhz (100x11) but in the setting it says it's a 2500+ with fsb 166 and multi 11 and the cpu interface is disabled. So i change nothing and restart it and it posts the correct info, xp2500 and list my drives but then the system hangs. What is the problem here? another time i just left the bios after resetting it and on bootup it read the processor as athlon xp 1100 mhz and continued to boot normally until the windows loading screen then a quick flash of the bsod and restart. For this second windows problem, i was told to do a fresh install of windows or a repair since my old board had a kt400 chipset. but that doesn't fix the cpu problem before it even get to windows. any help would be much appreciated, as i am using my aunt's crappy dell to write this.
also, i now have a stick of samsung pc3200 512mb there now and the cpu speed reads 333 when the processor comes up xp2500 and ddr400 when it boots as athlon 1100mhz
