    Just got a Shuttle + 2800 AMP chip but!!!

    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.
