My ABIT BE6-II died last month and I needed to quickly replace it. The best I could do locally was a Shuttle AV18E. I've successfully dealt with the chipset switch on my dual boot Win95/2K system but I'm back to running my Celeron 566/66 at native speed. I haven't been able to figure out the right combo of settings in the AV18E's bios to oc. With the ABIT board, I ran the celery at 850/100 for over a year. I'm using a Matrox G200 AGP video card. The system is mostly used as a DAW. Can anyone tell me how to oc the Celeron on this board?
BTW, the BE6-II v1.1 developed CMOS "amnesia". If I left the cmos clear jumper on overnight, I could boot up the next day with safe bios defaults. As soon as I powered off, it was non-functional - no signal to video, no post, nada. I've read about others having problems with bad capacitors on the BE6-II and there a a few on my board that are visably swollen. Anyone have a similar problem with this board? Is the problem I described related to the capacitor issue? Will changing the caps restore the board to life?
