Easy one 1551 amd k6-2
hello,
There are three jumpers on the mainboard of this laptop. Can anyone tell me what they are ? S1 S2 and S3. The problem I have is that the laptop is running at 450 MHz while the mounted CPU is a 550 MHz one. Thx a lot |

Did you run Sandra Sisoft to see what the bus speed is and the core voltage. I am assuming that this motherboard has not been screwed with . I believe the core is designed to work on 2.0 volts but will also run on 2.1 I am assuming since it is 450 it is running 75 at 6x I am just thinking the switches are at 6x and maybe the proper voltage. You did explore the bios and look for a option to change bus speed. If it is an award bios it has a great chance of just being the bus setting in the bios. I am currently looking at the switches on othe MB's and seeing how they look. If it is in the switches I doubt there is a setting for more than 6X I also doubt you will get more than 2.2 volts The bus and multiplier settings are usually 2 switch involvement. I do not see where you can go wrong but you will have to run sandra each time or look at the cpu number on boot. You could experiment with a very small degree of danger |
