Is it possible to use XP chips with the PC Chips (ECS) 810 LMR board?

The manual indicates it should be and the board has a big XP sticker on it...

however the jumper on the board that I'd need to change is not a jumper but rather an electrical weld...

Any ideas?

Regards

The manual is out of date, the original 810LMR didnt have XP in mind, and I dun think the manual were updated to reflect the inclusion of the AMD-XP processors.

HTH

The manual makes specific reference to Athlon XP CPUS and even shows the pins to change... but they are solderd on the board not jumpers.

plus there is a big XP sticker on the Socket for the CPU...

There is a bios update available on the web...

I'll probably try that but wondered if anyone had any experience with it.

Regards

AHA!!!

My eyes have seen the glory....


Turned out I had a stick of duff ram that was preventing the board/chip from posting.


Release 7.1 of the PC Chips 810LMR does indeed support 1800XP chips...

Just be sure to fit a sitck of 133 Ram that works.... :rolleyes:
