What are you talking about 60C being 'normal'?! I have a 2400+ running at 10x200 and my CPU temps are at a constant 20C idle, 24C under full load (1 hour of Prime95). I have an SLK-800 with a Panaflo L1A attached. More information at: newegg.com arstechnica.com hardocp.com bgmicro.com
Sh**t, now when I'm looking at this table I've mentioned above... jbenj01 it's looks like your CPU running at 1.75 VCORE whether it should be 1.60 ,go back to BIOS and correct it. if you need any help to locate it i'll help you.

BIOS will not let me opt for less than 1.75v VCORE voltage, even when I change setting to "manual' mode.. 1.75v is the lowest setting.. Please advise.. you guys are very helpful.. thank you. On a sidenote, I just installed some new drivers for my ATI Radeon All-in-Wonder 7500 video card (from ATI cd-rom install disc).. After installing everything, I rebooted and Windows Wizard, at startup, tells me that its found new hardware but CANNOT locate device drivers for it.. There are 5 separate Wizard windows that pop up--each says it cannot locate device drivers... When I look up my Add/Remove Hardware window, it indicates there are 5 new unidentified hardware devices but each is "unknown" (with big yellow question mark)... What am I missing here?

Damn,I'm really need to get some sleep,:D in the mean time just one suggestion Reset your bios setting to defaults, end then check the vcore parameters I'll check this tread tomorrow,and we'll see what next.

Ramirez, So I've got an 'old' Palamino chip vs. a new Thoroughbred? What's the downside/differences of owning my chip (besides the 1.75v vs. 1.60v)? I'm runing Win2000 Pro.. I really do NOT want to try to remove the heatsink/fan to apply some more compound, but will, if necessary.. I'm just afraid I'm going to muck it up (but then again, that'll give me a reason to upgrade to a faster and cooler chip.. :) auenf, Here's what I did to 'solve' the ATI 'hardware found' and driver install issue.. I simply uninstalled the display driver/s, re-booted, and re-installed them.. It seems the 'problem' is gone (but I have a feeling, not resolved). Should I uninstall again and follow your procedure? Seems I'm missing a lot of steps that the manual simply does NOT reflect.. Please advise. Thanks.
--------------------- It's not speed that kills, it's the speed difference that does. Obviously you aren't going fast enough. Turning Benjamins into noise since 1997 I read a list of the 100 things you MUST do before you die. Funny, "Yelling 'HELP'" didn't make the list!
