AVAST YE ... DEAD MEN DON'T BITE!
|
Pros / Cons? I have at work a T1115 w/ 1.0 Celeron, but it has some boot problems. (Lomita) Just inherited a T1801 w/ 800 mhz Celeron, it has a dead PS. (Cognac+) Both are PPGA, but at TD's site the Cognac is listed as just 66mhz FSB, but I think someone posted getting 100 mhz to work. Is this doable with jumpers, bios settings, or plug and go! Taz BTW these are just being used as a workstation to get email, do Word doc, light surfing, etc. I know they're not work horses but they are good enough. |

My friend has a 1.3 Celeron running in a Lomita mobo, and it is pretty good for an old machine. I personally would go with the Lomita and ditch the Cognac+ |

OFFICIAL SEARCH ENGINE.. & BIOS BADBOY..!
|
If I recall correctly, for the Cognac, I had to clear the cmos for the Bios to read the 100Mhz FSB properly. It did run at 100Mhz but showed 66Mhz on Post Screen without clearing cmos. No jumpers or changes in setup were needed.![]() |

Yes but the Lomita I have has some problem ... it takes more than 5 minutes to boot .... can't figure out why ... did a fresh BIOS flash, it did not help. Thanks lubner, I will do the swap and clear the CMOS. |

When I've had slow boot problems in the past, they've usually been due to: IDE or Floppy cable not well connected RAM check on bootup having problems (if it takes forever to get past the post screen) or Network cable with poor connection (Win98/ME) Bad drivers (if it's slow getting into Windows) Or the motherboard as you suspect. |
