Hi all,

First the specs of a spare rig I'm using to run Linux:

XP2700+ Amd. 1, 512MB pc2700 333Mhz Crucial Ram. ASUS A7v8nx-x Motherboard. Geforce FX5200. Good PSU.

Right Up until a few weeks ago (before I started messing around with it :() It was working perfect at stock (around 2ghz I believe). Now, the processor displays as a 2000+ (in Linux and boot up) and I cannot get it past 1.25GHZ - which is a default profile. If I alter the multiplier, FSB (to anything above the default 200) or anything else it does not boot.

I really don't know what to do. Ive tried moving the ram to different slots resulting in the same probs everytime.

Any help appriciated.

Regards,
