HELLO EVERYONE,
I Had a p3-450mhz slot1 cpu &440BX M/B,it worked fine for a year,but after that my pc wouldnot boot up,so i cleaned the cpu's contact with a tape head cleaner after that it would work fine for a couple of months,but after that again same problem,and one day even after cleaning,it didnot start,so i bought a p2-233mhz slot1 cpu you know slot1 cpu's are extinct.one day i'just tried my luck on the old cpu,i worked but the bios showed as p3-166mhz,after that it again went dead.
So currently i am using the p2-233mhz. it works absouletly fine,only speed is the problem,i cann't work any heavy applications...
So somebody told me about daughter cards.I bought one yesterday after a long search.Also a friend of my has 4 cpu's of p3-733Mhz socket (green color)type,and the price is also affordable,but i just learn't that from your website that 440BX M/B supports only upto 600 mhz.
Now the question,I've carefully studied my m/b,saw all the jumpers,and found out that (100-133MHZ jumpers for cpu bus,clock ratio upto 9 and a marking wich says coppermine ready),now if my calculations are right 733/133=5.5 &733/100=7.3.
now if all these calculations fit the 733mhz cpu in the picture then will it really work on my board fine and will it get damaged or not.
The daughter card i bought has many jumpers also(for intel/via cpu,for system bus selection of 133/100,cpu voltage vid 4-0 also an auto seting).
also how do i identify who's the manufacturer,there is no name on the card..
Please Help me out otherwise i will never buy any intel products in future.
