Is my neo2 guilty of...

Tekko · 01-19-06, 11:10 AM

crapping out? I got this almost bug and problem free neo2 (ya lucky me) but I came across a weird problem. I'm currently OCing my opty 148 at a multi of x10 I got up to 10x289 memtest/prime/superPI/OCCT stable(started at 275 and worked my way up from there) but if I let the rig powered down for a while it will not post(fan spin but that's it). On a cold boot I can't post at anything above 280mhz. I'm currently at same speed(2.9Ghz) but with a higher multi and I don't get any problem with cold boot, could it be that 280mhz is my mobo limit or is it possible it's something else?

My Neo2 would run at 315x8 prime stable for days but would not cold POST above 288HT with the 1.9 - 1.B BIOS's.
Tho with the 1.8 BIOS it would cold POST all the way up to 315.

This is a common problem with the Neo2.

I have the same problem, but it's sporadic. It'll cold boot today, and not tomorrow. If it does it though, I just hold down power till it turns off, then I power back up and it's all good. I rarely turn it off though, so it doesn't really affect me. It doesn't affect stability IMO, so I just ignore it.
