CMOS clearing

[OneKiwi]

Hi all you can see by the other thread if upgraded and got it all working except when I boot up it shows:

Main CPU info.......... the new cpu and its info

CPU Clock real ckeck....

Memory testing.......

then...

CPU0 and it shows the old cpus info

Also if i restart the pc when something new is installed it boots into the old cpu

Now i have cleared the Cmos like in the manual and also removed the battery, gone into bios and loaded optimal settings save and exit and it still shows up.

What can I do??? Any hints and or tip would be great :worship:

flash BIOS should sort the problem

 

[FarFarAway]

Agreed with Dave, sounds like a BIOS flash is needed

I have already gor the latest that I am aware of.

Is there a sticky of how to to that I want to check I did it right

 

[OneKiwi]

Ive used magic bios and it says I have the latest updates

For a proper CMOS clear you need to:

turn off

Switch jumper to "clear" position

Take CMOS battery out

Take all power connectors out of all componentns

Leave overnight

Then reconnect and switch back to normal positions

Try clearing the NVRAM and/or ESCD in the bios menu (although clearing CMOS should have had the same effect) but ya never know.
