I purchased an Abit KT-7 RAID and A pretested unlocked Duron 600 that is supposed to hit 900 from overclockerz. I am able to hit 600 and 650, but anything higher and the machine won't even boot-up. I try to clear the CMOS (both ways: with the jumper, and with Ins-on boot) and nuttin..the only way I can get the machine to work again is to unplug everything from the Mobo (cept the CPU), and then plug it back in. This is with v-core at 1.8, so I tried goosing it up to 1.825, and the same thing happens. I only adjusted the multipler, not the FSB, as I don't wanna run PCI or AGP outta spec and the duron is unlocked...you can see the pencil lead on it Here's what I am running:
TNT AGP
Aopen FM56-P PCI Modem (slot 1)
Intel 21041 10/100B-T (slot 2)
SB Live (slot 4)
IDE1-Aopen 9632 DVD (master)
IDE2-HP 9100 CDRW (master)
IDE3-Maxtor 30GB 7200RPM (master) and WDC 9.1GB Expert (slave)
IDE4-Maxtor 30GB 7200RPM (master)
A Floppy (duh?)
Using a noname T-Bird HS/FAN which is pretty hefty-4500RPM while I wait for my FOP32 to come in from overclockerz, with thermal grease.
Aopen 235W power supply in ATX midtower case
My initial thought was that perhaps the power supply was too weak, especially cause I'm running so many drives, but I unplugged all the drives except my boot drive, and took out all the periphs, and I still couldn't get up to 700.
Temp@600 is ~35C
So what do I need to do to get this sucker up to 900?
Any and all help appreciated!
