| |
Hi,
i might have found some interesting informations regarding the Athlon optimisation problems. I have two different Athlon versions, the older one seems to work very table, the newer one crashes always during system startup. Both chips where running in exactly the same machine. (the older one is a 1.133Ghz the newer one a 1.2Ghz.)
I tried 2.4.9, 2.4.9-ac6 and 2.4.3, not difference. The system is a MSI-K7A Turbo with KT133A from VIA, 256MB PC133 RAM. I have 8 of the new ones, and all of them do not work.
Because the same system is stable with one kind of Athlons and does not work with the other, couldn't this mean those Athlons are buggy ?
Of course all troubles vanish when i turn off Athlon optimisation. But this probably doesnt kill the problem.
The old Athlon reads: A1133AMS3C AVIA 0115TPAW 95262550081
The new (non working) one: A1200AMS3C AXIA 0121RPDW 95987660990
I hope this is somehow useful.
ciao, heinz
