Hi techpowerup!!!!!
I recently got my AMD XP 2600+ in the mail.
When i turned on the system, the biggest coil on the motherbord started whinig SUPER LOUD.
When i touched it, i ALMOST BURNED MY FINGER!!!! :cry:
It was hotter than the heatsink!!!!!! :eek:

I was like "Hell no i dont need that!"
So i decidet to put my old cpu back.
But after i tryed to turn it on with my old amd athlon 1000 my board started beeping, like there was something wrong with my ram.
So i thought, "man i fried this thing"! S*IT

I got bored and wanted to try the 2600 again.
IT WORKED, but the high pitched noie coming from the coils is horrible!!!
One more thing: the 2600 has a 333 fsb running on a 266 board.
Can i do anything to stop the high pitched noise? :cry:
(i recognized, when i scoll in the internet explorer, the noise level gets higher, im afraid to burn me coil)

Change back to the old CPU, and reset BIOS before turning on again.

the problem is likely that the 2600 is drawing more power than the board is meant to provide, and its not liking it.

as for the old CPU, scam has it right - do a BIOS reset. its likely running settings the 1000 cant handle.

Also, is your board an OEM? Looks like it is. Presario. How did I miss that :p
Wouldn't hurt to see if there's a BIOS update for your board, it may help things.

EDIT:
Aww, seem your 2600+ isn't supported by your board.
