I decided to make a change on the hardware. Normally the motherboard would be working at 133Mhz/33 to be able to use the Thunderbirds front bus capacity of 266Mhz. Since most of the errors I was seeing were printing out CPU dumps, I decided to lower the bus velocity to 100Mhz/33. I then was able to install stock 7.1. I had tried the machine using Windows at full speed with no problems. Could it be the kernel isn't handling the added speed of the CPU and memory (as I understand, they are linked in this board, so raising one raises the other.) Right now the CPU is working at 900Mhz (not 1200 as it should). How can I increase the speed again without hitting the same problems? This sounds like flakey hardware to me... The problems may not be exposed as well by Windows, but your downgrading of the speed solving the problems would strongly indicate the problem being hardware. The FSB speed of the CPU is irrelevant. |
