:disgust:I have a slight problem if anybody has a suggestion.
I threw my system together and it posted the first time I turned it on. My 2.6C was correctly identified and I went into the Bios(1.0) and tried setting up the Raid function. After saving the new settings, the Bios restarted and froze very quickly after incorrectly showing I had a 13x100 MHz processor. After resetting the CMOS (many times...even removed battery & power) I can no longer even post. The board turns on but no video or beeps. Have tried disconnecting everything and restarting with different combinations. NOTHING! So I took out my 2.4B from my other system, threw it in, and everything posts fine. Installed XP Pro w/RAID. Perfect. Run tests. Stable. So then I took the 2.6C and put it into my cheap ECS mobo and it posts and runs XP perfect. The ECS mobo shows it as a 1.73 (13x133Mhz) which is all this mobo can do. I run the Intel ID/stepping program and it show the processor as a 2.6C with HT and of course tells me I am running it at 533 fsb (expected). But as soon as I try to put the 2.6C back into the IC7-G MaxII it wont even post (I even tried clearing the CMOS again). But it will work in the ECS mobo @ 13x133Mhz and my 2.4B works just fine in the IC7-G. What the Hell??
I have flashed to Bios 1.3 and now 1.4 No help. Is the problem my Mobo or the Processor????
Thanks for any insight.
