cel II 566 won't post in p2b-f rev 1.00/MSI 6905

[DaveH]

Hi All,

I know that the CPU works fine, as well as the slocket, as it boots fine in a p3b-f. I also know the p2b-f should be good, as it works great with a celeron 300a. I have tried the MSI slocket at standard settings and 1.5 and 1.65 vols, with no luck.

I'm using the 1013 bios that's supposed to support celermines.

Any ideas? If a p2b-f won't support the fc-pga, what will it do, and how can one tell? There's a cryptic message here about some boards not supporting it:

any way I can tell if mine's one?

TIA for any help!

It's supposed to work at 1.65 V (at least on a few boards), but out of interest's sake I'd like to hear what happens if you set it at 1.8 V.

(Make sure all your other cards are pulled for testing and memory and AGP are set correctly.)
