I just picked myself up a Mobile Barton 2500+ (stepping IQYHA 0351 MPMW), and I'm having an odd problem, I think.
My motherboard (Epox 8RDA+ r1.1) and this processor get along fine from multipliers 6 - 12.5. At 13 and up, it says that there's been an overclock fail, and drops me back to failsafe defaults. It sucks, 'cause I can't even run this processor at stock speed for the burn-in I was planning.
I've checked the manual, flashed my BIOS to the latest revision, reset the CMOS etc, but all to no avail. It still won't hit 13 and up.
I've also searched the forum, but came up empty handed. I can't find anybody else having this particular problem.
Is this an issue w/ my board, or the processor, do you think? Is there anything else anybody would recommend me trying?
Thanks!
