i want to get my server back up.

3991vhtes · Dec 4, 2007

What kind of server was it? Web, File, Gaming?

[I.R.A]_FBi · Dec 4, 2007

file server over teh web, windows home server.

3991vhtes · Dec 4, 2007

Ahh, I see...

You really should look into a Athlon MP instead of an XP. MP's were designed for servers and such.

[I.R.A]_FBi · Dec 4, 2007

have to work with what i have, the "beauty" of a third world country.

mp's were designed for dual processor

3991vhtes · Dec 4, 2007

Actully, they can be for single or dual CPU server setups.

Grings · Dec 4, 2007

the multi chip support is the only thing different about them, i actually modded a pair of thoroughbred-b's into mp's once, it's only a pair of bridges that need joining, everything else about the chips is identical
the point is however, is there would be absolutely no benefit to the swap whatsoever

3991vhtes · Dec 4, 2007

Well I was told that MP's were for servers and business workstations.

JrRacinFan · Dec 4, 2007

It's only a small change, 3991. The MP's are just a small minute core feature that is enabled.

You can take "anything" that's Tbred-B/Barton (Sempron's AND Athlons) based and with a small bridge mod you can put 2 of them together in a dual socket motherboard that supports it's rated FSB.

w00t my CPU is still good!!!

Guess something got locked in the BIOS, to where it won't reset even after clearing CMOS. I need a new BIOS for the board. [sarcasm]Yee haw![/sarcasm]

Darknova · Dec 4, 2007

Just rebuilt my old Athlon XP rig

Athlon XP 2600, 1Gb DDR400, ATi Radeon 9600LE.

Just bought an Antec NSK4000 case and it's frigging awesome. Seriously it's the best case I've ever bought for less than £50 (it was less than £20 lol).

3991vhtes · Dec 4, 2007

Can you post pics

spud107 · Dec 5, 2007

3991vhtes · Dec 5, 2007

Strange....have you made sure the new battery isn't dead?

spud107 · Dec 5, 2007

might try bios flash if i can boot it up again,

JrRacinFan · Dec 6, 2007

May be bad nvram spud.

Woah Mama! · Dec 6, 2007

I'm sorry to tell you I will no longer be using any socket A machines as of this time next week. This sucker is going straight on eBay as soon as my last bits for my 'new' rig get here.

Hasta la vista 462!

Cuzza · Dec 6, 2007

It got deleted? Bugger. Oh well, a new one is all good. I'd have joined earlier but I've not been around these forums much in the last couple of weeks, had weekends away and then I got sick and yeah, my life is pretty hectic right now. By my standards anyway. But yeah, sign me up again.

I'm selling my socket A machine soon (and my other one for that matter), disappointing to see it go but I need all the cash I can get before I leave the country. I'd do a for sale thread on here but it's not worth the shipping charges for you guys to buy from me!

3991vhtes · Dec 7, 2007

I'm going to bring the Socket A back to life, I've been an inactive Socket 462'er, but now, I'm building a new Socket A rig... :rockout:

I'll get specs soon
