just brought a SN41G2 shuttle computer & a AMD 2800+ cpu, plus lots of other bits, but windows is saying that i have a 2200+ chip? i don't wanna have to take the thing apart to check so the questions are...
is this a windows/bios update issue?
have i been sent the wrong chip?
and how can i tell by looking on the chip?
man nothing goes right first time!!!

I had this on my SN45G. It was a simple case of changing the CPU FSB in the bios that sorted it for me. I don't know off hand what the fsb is for a 2800, but for my 2500 it was put in on auto as 100 mhz, should have been 166mhz. Hope this helps.
oh i see! i had the bios set for 133, i moved it off 100... ok i will give 166 a try! man times have changed since i last built one!
YEP!! that fixed it, it nows says it's a 2800+ running at 2.08... now is that ram ok? why does it say 480?
That is 512MB minus 32MB for the integrated Graphics
