Yes, you can. Its an AMD Athlon thunderbird core. They are not the *best* overclockers, but they arnt bad at all. You could get 1.4-1.6Ghz out of it I would imagine.

It has SSE which means it's an AthlonXP doesn't it? A Palomino core I believe. Probably still only capable of 1.6ghz though |

no its an older chip than the palamino,it is the thunderbird core...a good overclocker

But it lists SSE, a feature not added to Athlons until palamino I'm sure |

1800+ doesnt run 1.15Ghz, and secondly, the cpu id says Athlon(tm) not Athlon XP. I am almost sure its a Tbird.

OK your motherboard is an Asrock K7VT2 as can be found here http://www.asrock.com/product/product_k7vt2.htm I have uploaded and saved the latest (and last ever) bios for that particular motherboard, which might help it identify your chip, which I have no doubt now is an 1800+ underclocked due to an identification problem. go here to get the BIOS http://files.aoaforums.com/index.php?dir=257 (its the one at the top) This is how you flash the BIOS ASRFLASH.EXE: The Flash Memory Writer utility is included in the WinZip format of BIOS file. It updates the BIOS by uploading a new BIOS file to the programmable flash ROM chip on the motherboard. To determine the BIOS version of your motherboard, press <F2> to enter the BIOS setup utility during bootup, and check the BIOS version from the Main menu. Larger numbers represent a newer BIOS file. This utility works only in DOS mode. The Flash Memory Writer utility can not be suitable for all ASRock motherboards. Please use the Flash utility which is included in each BIOS file to update its BIOS. Also ASRock motherboard MUST use ASRock's Flash utility to update BIOS, those uncertified BIOS flashing tools will cause motherboard damage. Updating BIOS Procedures Create a bootable system floppy disk. Download an updated ASRock BIOS file (WinZip format with .zip file extension) from the web site, unzip the BIOS file and save both ASRFLASH.EXE utility and BIOS file to the disk you created in step 1. Boot from the disk you created in step 2. At the "A:\" prompt, type ASRFLASH, hit space bar once, and type BIOS file name then press <Enter>. For example: A:\ASRFLASH K7S41GX2.00 <Enter> then you will see a message "Please wait for BIOS loading ROM". After 30 seconds, you will see the message "Flash ROM Update Completed - Pass", then you have finished upgrading the BIOS. After finishing upgrading the BIOS, please remove the floppy disk. Restart your system and press <F2> to enter the BIOS setup utility during boot up. In Exit menu, please select "Load Default Settings" and press <Enter> to continue. Select "Exit Saving Changes" and press <Enter> to exit the BIOS setup utility. Now, system is booting up with new BIOS. This is from http://www.asrock.com/support/index_BIOS_INS.htm

1500+ was the lowest XP with a 1.330 Ghz speed. Makes sense that it is misidentified.

before my 2500+ i had 1800+ palomino.It ran @ 1.53GHz at 1.7 V so i think(though i'm also a newb) it is misidentification.Wheb i bought it(the 1800+) the jumper on my MB was set to 100NHz so i had to change it.If that or bios flashing don't work- well i think u should get your MB/CPU changed ![]()
