the pin trick works !!! I enlarged the pin hole and it sliped in without scrathing off the nail polish it works it works it works

 

[phoenixofwater]

REALLY!!!! tell more!!!

 

[Daemonfly]

So the pin trick works? If someone else were brave enough, they could just remove that pin altogether to 100% verify this fix.

I'm not brave enough plus, I don't need to since my RAM runs fine at 2.66

well I downloaded the pdf file from intel and shure enuf zaps info was corect it had to work! So I looked for what could have gone wrong . First I must have goten some polish on one of the other pins thay are very close together after all. That must be why I got the no boot problem. so this time I used a piece of wire insulation from an old set of headphones . and enlarged the same pin hole on the socket with a piece of wire about the same size of the insulation. Makeing shure it didnt peal back the insulation it took a couple of times but it finaly went in wright. booted up just fine @133 2.4gig with all the memory timeings. ps tell zap I said thanks a lot !!!

well i finally put my system together. i gotta say this board rox!!! i left it too burn in for 2 nights and i finally clocked it this evening at 2.8 @ default voltage. it was acting up alil so i dropped it down to 2.7 with agressive timings (or is it turbo timings).
i wasnt able to get the power led thing to work correctly even though i pulled the wires from the plastic cover and rearranged them. ill play with it some more, but i gotta say im impressed with this board. if i had to say a bad thing about it is the floppy cable location?!?!

Hi Guys

Hey guys whats up do you guys know if one of these coolers will fit this board the px845pe pro II which are the alpha pal 8942 or the swiftech mcx 4000 and which is better thanks guys happy Holidays

 

[Daemonfly]

If the coolers are made to fit P4 spec'ed boards, then it should fit fine. (don't have those dimensions with me atm..)

From a quick look at the Alpha, it should work fine.

I'm currently using the Alpha. No problem at all with clearance.

You're welcome. Phoenixofwater gets around, hehe. Don't remember registering here, but apparently I have sometime in the past. Good job on the CPU. Now I have verification that my findings were correct.
