How do I set the FSB and multiplyer when replacing a CPU?

Your best bet to get the most of your processor is to install it. Then boot it up. If it's a respectable motherboard, it will detect the difference and offer you a chance to set it up. Choose the specs that match your new CPU, and it'll give it the best chance of running the longest.

it seems to be an overclocking problem - the system became instable. reset all clocking values back to the defaults.

http://www.sis.com/support/support_faqs_4.htm\n\nSiS6326 does not support on board BIOS programming. So, there is no program to provide this function. However, there is a substitution way. Please visit SiS web-site to download a file named "Tsr.exe". After decompressing it, there is a readme file inside to guide users to do a BIOS updating without using a ROM-programmer. It will let Windows load new BIOS parameters everytime entering Windows.\n\nhttp://www.sis.com/download/agreement.php?id=38039\n\nPlease go through entire sis web site, ONE of THE MOST ELABORATE and user friendly !\n(but i only find problem after problem after problem with this sis stuff, on site)\n\nbest of luck ....

When you restarts the system, BIOS shows the CPU speed.

on newer mainboards no settings have to be changed. assume you want to upgrade from a Pentium 4 630 (3GHz) to a Pentium 4 660 (3.6GHz), the mainboard recognize the new CPU automatically due to the CPUID (this is an identfication code within the CPU). The multiplier of the clock frequency will then automatically be set from 15 to 18 (x 200MHz).

see the green swrilly thing by the red x well click that and it will refresh your cpu and you will hopefully see your updates!

Do... find a 50 dollar CPU on ebay and bust it open and play with the software.  Ofcourse, there is also the library....

No, lacks the command set imbedded into the cpu

Forget all that!..\n\nWhat you need to do is open-up the P.c, and reset the BIOS.\n\nThis is VERY SIMPLE! - all thats involed is moving a jumper, and moving it back a few seconds later (With the computer turned OFF!)\n\nCheck online for the exact location of the Jumper you need to swap. Just goto you Mobo's Manufacturers Website\n\nRegards, Mikeo =)

On the startup, tap one of the following:\nDelete\nF1\nF2\nF10\n\nThese are some different keys you can try.  Some adding "Alt" or "Ctrl" to some of these if these don't work.  Many compaqs have strange BIOS keys.

You will need a piece of softeware, BITPM is good. There is a thread on this on the link below:

I think it's F8 not F5, I would keep hitting F8 repeatedly after hitting the power button and a menu should come up on how you want to boot up.

You know this topic is too extensive to cover here. \n\nThere is some good reference material covering both types of processors here: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/r_harvey/doc_cpu.htm \n\nIn Pentium class processors, there also model-specific registers  http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/r_harvey/doc_cpu.htm

Restart your  computer and then press delete  key.It  will just maake u reach in bios setup aand where u can change the hardware configration.

You cannot actually make the processor operate any faster (the most you can do is enter setup while just turning on the PC and choosing to set the processor speed to fastest). However, if you would like to speed up the time it takes to turn on the PC and get things going, go to Start --> Run --> Type "msconfig". Now go to the last tab called startup and uncheck any programs that are from your program installations (make sure you know what each does) and leave only the firewall checked. Though dont touch system programs such as Systray. Now press ok and restart the PC. This will eliminate the stealth programs running in the background at all times and eliminate them from slowing down your PC.

Overclocking Your Processor\nWARNING: Overclocking of any kind voids all manufacturer warranties and can depreciate the life expectancy of your component.\nWARNING: Overclocking is dangerous and can result in a dead/fried processor.\nCAUTION: Take it slow, overclock in subtle amounts, and always check the stability of your current overclocked settings through a benchmarking/stability utility.\nWith those warnings out of the way, Welcome to the Overclocking Guide for Processors! Most likely you won't fry your processor, but it does happen, and increasing the frequency of your processor by too much can result in a dead processor. Be sure to always monitor the temperature of your CPU during overclocking and don't exceed the manufacturer's recommended operating temperature. Remember, the temperature will increase with activity and strenuous programs, so I suggest downloading a program that will load your computer while monitoring the processor temperature (e.g. Prime95). Replacing the stock heat-sink/fan with a good $50 heat-sink/fan will drastically reduce your processor temperatures.\n\nTerms to Know:\n\nCPU Clock/FSB: This is the frequency of your processor.\nCPU Ratio/Multiplier: This is the multiplication factor used with the CPU Ratio/FSB to determine the end processor frequency.\nHTT Multiplier/FSB Multiplier/LTD Bus Frequency: This is the multiplication factor used with the CPU Ratio/FSB to determine the operating FSB frequency. Standard factors are 5X/1GHz, 4X/800Mhz, 3X/600MHz, 2X/400MHz, 1X/200MHz.\n\n\nA note: This tutorial is guided for AMD 64-bit processors. They are the most complicated to overclock, so if you can overclock an AMD 64, you can overclock anything. Remember though that not every processor is overclockable, AMD and Intel alike. Also note that many Intel processors have a locked CPU Ratio/FSB Multiplier.\nLet's Get Started:\n\n1) Max Memory Speed\n\nThe first step is to determine how fast your memory can go. This is done so that when overclocking we know that an excessive memory speed isn't what is causing instability problems.\n\nA) First drop down your CPU Ratio/Multiplier down two spots. (If at 11X, drop it to 9X)\n\nB) Set your AGP/PCI lock to 33/67 respectively if you have this option in the BIOS.\n\nC) Set the HTT Multiplier/FSB Multiplier/LTD BUS Frequency to 4X/800Mhz. This multiplication factor multiplied by the CPU Clock's FSB cannot be greater than your motherboards FSB specification. So if your motherboards FSB is 1000MHz and your CPU Clock/FSB is at 200MHz and your multiplier is at 5X your at 1000MHz. But if you raise the CPU Clock/FSB as we are going to while keeping the multiplier at 5X, we will be over the 1000MHz limit and we will run into stability issues.\n\nD) Disable the Cool n' Quiet feature prevalent on AMD boards if it is enabled.\n\nE) Disable Spread Spectrum\n\nF) Save your settings and boot to Windows.\n\nG) Using ClockGen, let it raise your memory speeds automatically or do it manually at 5Mhz increments (If at 200MHz, set it to 205MHz.).\n\nH) Do this until it locks up or artifacts appear. Record this number.\n\nI) On lockup, reboot your PC into BIOS.\n\nJ) Set you CPU Clock/FSB to the number prior to your recorded number. (If doing 5MHz steps, 5MHz less than your recorded number.\n\nK) Save your settings and boot to Windows.\n\nL) Run all tests on Memtest86 one time to check for errors. If you get any errors they will present themselves as red lines at the bottom of the window. Upon seeing these lines, reboot into BIOS. Go to step M). If you don't see these lines, go to step N).\n\nM) Lower your CPU Clock/FSB down by 3MHz, save and boot into Windows. Then run Memtest86 again. Do this until you receive no errors. Skip step N).\n\nN) Raise your CPU Clock/FSB up by 1 MHz, save and boot into Windows. Then run Memtest86 again. Do this until you receive an error. Upon receiving the error, lower the CPU Clock/FSB down to its prior stable state. Recor

If it's a bios password use "Killcmos" other than that you need to reformat and install a fresh OS.
