my supplier can't figure it out the machine just hard locks and i mean hard.have to pull the plug to get it to run again.
 
Doesn't the Pro2-a only support up to 1.2?

I think what may be happeneing is it is maxing at 1.2 and then you're oc'ing from 1.2 to 1.3

Correct me if i'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the Pro2-a goes up to 1.2...
 
Sorry...I was wrong but I was on the right track.

The MSI K7T Pro2-A max's out at 1.3 So what you're doing is running a chip that is too fast for your motherboard to handle...so it is automatically underclocking it.

What you could try and do is overclock from 1.3 to hit 1.4, but that would in a way defeat the purpose of buying the 1.4
 
" I don't see how a BIOS revision can change what the motherboard can support... "
Um ok, how about by adding more multiplier options! Like some bios updates have done!
Obviously it wont allow ddr ram support on a non ddr board or 233fsb support on a no kt133 chip but multipliers can be added so can memory tweaks!
 


<< 300 watts for a 1.4? >>



Is perfectly adequate. I can assure you especially in a system like that that isn't even very loaded with dual HDs, dual CDROM drives etc.
