Kk266r + Xp2000+ = Kool

[Ekim]

I just put in an XP2000+ in my KK266R mobo. I flashed the newest (1022) from iwill, but it shows the chip as an XP1885+, although cpuid shows it running at the correct 1.667mhz. I have it running at 1.693mhz(136*12.5) @ 1.75v now and it is very stable. 40c Idle and 45c-47c under load. I haven't tried filling the gaps yet. I figured I'd make sure it worked with my KK266R first. No problems so far. Is there a newer bios somewhere?

If you try to unlock the amd 2000+ xp palimino processor, be VERY carefull not to scratch the thin coating on the surface of the chip platform. there is a (GOLD COLORED) grounding plate just under the surface. If you make a mistake, start over. NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES ATTEMPT TO SCRATCH THE CONDUCTIVE SUBSTANCE YOU ARE ATTEMPTING TO APPLY AWAY/APPART FROM OTHER AREAS OR CONTACTS. I used a magnified headband to perform the work on my 1800+ XP and a cheap microscope to check the work at 150x magnification. and I noticed that I had scratched the coating and exposed the grounding plate extremely close to the bridging contact. It took me 25 attempts to get all 5 pins bridged properly. without touching any of the scratches or other bridges. TOMSHARDWARE has a good video that you can download that shows you how to properly perform the unlock on the XP processors. Or you can place a search in these forums for the screen name falseprophet and there is a lot more info in some of the articles that will be of use. be carefull and good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First of all, what mod did you do to your motherboard to get this chip running stable, I've had to mod my 5V line, I/O voltage over 3.6V, and add caps as well to stabilize my XP 1700+ at default. I can't OC either.

Feel free to inform us.

KK266R and CPU

I have a KK266-R. I am looking to by a cpu for it. I have seen some things that say XP's work great with it but I have also heard some kind of scary stories of it not working no matter what. So exactly what cpu should I get that has the highest speed but will work with my mobo.
