What motherboard and BIOS do you have? There can be a problem with Award bios |
2 |
based motherboards that causes the bios to fail to find the |

frequency/multiplier settings from processor. Usually it would drop you into |
4 |
the bios with an error message. You can set the frequency manually there. |

However when it happened to me the board had to be dumped, it was an Asus |
6 |
A7V600 runing an AMD 1800 |
