help :p
 

Today my new cpu arrived from Bicker .. thnx!
( XP1800+ )

I 'pulled out the Duron800 from the Abit KR7A
& inserted the XP1800+

boots up, no problem,
prime95 no problem,

but when I launch a game ( 3DMark/Unreal ), it hangs after 10 sec

my n00bish question:
does changing the cpu have ANY effect on the GFX?

I also have:
Geforce 3 Ti500
&
Twinmoss PC2100 ( also tried PC 2700 )

I have a feeling something might be wrong with the gfx,
it's very hot ...fans still running though :p

any idea's I can try ?

reinstall your OS?

come and get a replacement GF here, for testing purposes :)

alliright, here I come again :)

:)

if your GF worked fine before, it would work with another CPU.

Teus might be right.
PSU = ? watt ?

psu : 300watt

trying other gfx as I type

well

that was it ...

how much warranty on a MSI GF3 Ti500 ? :p

never mind, it hangs during the 3rd test :p

oh yeah

is it normal on a KR7A that it says Unknown CPU Type 1800+ ???
