[cobra]

when i put the 1200 back everything runs fine

my question is are there settings i have to do , voltage slew rate etc

Try setting S2K SLEW RATE CONTROL to 1 with 1200 installed then switch
to the 2100+

I do have to wonder tho if you actually have a model 6 palomino core
2100+ and not a model 8 Tbred core. 2100+ Palomino are not being
sold anymore, and its been some time since they have been.

This advice is absolutely correct, but I should tell you my
experience. I planned the upgrade for a few months. I had every
detail written down. But when it came time to make the switch, I was
so concerned with the difficulties of switching the HSF without
removing the motherboard that I forgot to change the slew rate to 1 in
advance. What an idiot! Guess what. The 2100+ Palomino booted right
up, anyway. I simply entered Setup and changed it from 3 to 1 after
the upgrade. No problems whatsoever.
I wonder what the difference was between my system and Stefaan's

I do have to wonder tho if you actually have a model 6 palomino core
2100+ and not a model 8 Tbred core. 2100+ Palomino are not being

I want to upgrade my A7m266 from Athlon 1.4 to whatever is possible, I
cannot get any answers from contacting ASUS. Can anyone advise me of a
knowledge source where I can find out what is possible and what I have to
do, how do I find out about "Slew Rate"?.
Regards
Barry
