Hi,
I've been trying to get a system together for a gift. Am giving away my NF7 to Mom as she has my old Abit BH-6 at a raging 333Mhz and it's painfully slow.
Was transferring faster & better parts to my DFI NFII Infinity & killed it last night. I made a change in the bios to reflect the faster ram & the board is dead, won't boot, southbridge gets warm but northbridge does not nor does the processor. I did the usual clear CMOS routine to no avail.
I put the processor, ram & video card in the NF7 and everything ran beautifully so it's a problem with the motherboard.
Finally I removed plug, battery, left the clear cmos jumper in the on position, removed the bios and went to bed.
After reassembly it's still dead as a doornail this morning.
I have two XP2600 mobile processors & one XP2500 (Mom's getting the XP2400) and want to overclock the mobiles but looking around I see 64 bit everything & few Socket A motherboards available.
So if anyone knows of a quality Socket 462 (Socket A) motherboard still being sold that is not only excellent for overclocking (multipliers, Nice VCore & VDimm options) but will leave the PCI Bus at 33 Mhz & not mess with the hard drive bus speed, Please let me know.
Thanks.
