2nd pc; semi-intelligent questions; more specific info if req'd.
I bought, acquired this hw, but never learned how to use it. I am trying to get the ram to 133 MHz. A little more MHz out of the 600 celeron cpu would be nice. Its currently got the Intel heat sink/fan it cam w/ w/ box?! I thought it would be default to highest ram setting if possible (133MHz).
Q1) Do you have to overclock the cpu to get the ram from 100 to 133, and will a 600 celeron cpu do it? Is this a dependant on getting my cpu to 600x 1.33=800 Mhz?
I've got all 3 mem slots filled. The (newish) BIOS says "SDRAM capability 133", but "SDRAM Operating Mode 100".
Q2) Is it possible to have the "SDRAM capability 133" line, but not have the capability i.e maybe not all 3 sticks in the slots have it, and its teasing me?
I already tried setting the following; it ran windows & all, then I had to let it cool down I guess after sloow boot/non-boot(I thought I fried it), but I didn't see "SDRAM Operating Mode 133" on subsequent boot. Now back to defaults:
Manual, & 801
9x
66:100:33
89/133/44
