|  Little Help Overclocking...(n00b) Hey, I'm a first time poster long time reader. Basicaly I've just gotten into overclocking and ive read a ton of how tos. Dealing with this problem, however isn't in any I've read. Iv'e got an AMD 2200 35W Mobile, AN-35 Ultra mobo, and 640 MB DDR 266 RAM. Yeah its not a great setup but ive got it running at 133x15 @ 1.4v. Anyway heres my big question. My board and my system wont recognize the CPU as a AMD XP it just says processor unknown. Is there a way to fix this? Is this problem because desktop Bartons don't normally operate at a 266 FSB? Yes I know Mobiles come default at like 266 FSB, and yes I know DDR 266 ram sucks, but its all I have at the moment. Ill have one stick of PC-3200 in a few weeks but for now im stuck with this. |

| I don't think a mobile cpu get's recognized by a mobo ( not the rating 2600+ or something like that) Because my motherboard (nf7-s) also doesn't know the name of my cpu in the bios and also the clockspeed. But I did a wiremod for standard 166 fsb on my socket and that solved the problem with the wrong clockspeed. So the only solution is a wiremod I think |

| The motherboard maker has to release a bios update with the codes for the mobiles in it. only then will your mobo recognize your mobile correctly. the mobile will also boot at 100*6 in safe mode and 133*6 in optimized defaults afaik. eather way, I don't see what the problem is, everything works like it should doesn't it. it's not like you're having problems because of the unknown cpu thingy is it? |

| As long as it runs at normal speed, it should be fine. |
